Ukraine taking steps to export flour to China

Ukraine plans to sign an agreement for the export of its flour to China this year, the State Service of Ukraine on Food Safety and Consumer Protection said during the Agro Ukraine Summit in Kyiv, Ukraine.

In addition, the agency is working on opening exports to China of Ukrainian wheat, sorghum, millet, millet groats, as well as mustard to Peru and corn to Chile.

“The digitalization of phytosanitary services is a step toward simplifying the procedures for issuing phytosanitary documents, which significantly activates the diversification of Ukrainian exports,” he said. “And this year, the State Service of Ukraine on Food Safety and Consumer Protection achieved significant success — it introduced the ePhyto system in Ukraine. Currently, the system has issued 65,500 phytosanitary certificates, of which 51,100 are for destination countries that have joined the ePhyto HUB system.”

Chaykovsky said those who plan to export these products to China this year should contact the territorial bodies of the agency to conduct crop surveys, as provided for by the protocols.
