Abstract: The purpose of the conducted research was to systematize and synthesize the direct and indirect losses incurred by Ukrainian agriculture in 2022-2025 and to assess changes in the sector’s condition – reflected in production dynamics, the structure of producers, and export performance – using available official statistics and institutional reports. The research period focused on the time of the full-scale war in Ukraine (2022-2025). Some comparisons were made also with the pre-war state of agriculture. As a result, the losses of agriculture due to the war were systematized and classified, and the main changes in the branch as a reaction to the challenges, associated with the war, were identified, including specified changes in the structure of Ukrainian agriculture, the dynamics of agricultural production volumes and its sectoral structure and, accordingly, in exports. It was established that, despite the direct and indirect damage, caused by the war to Ukrainian agriculture, which caused significant losses in the branch, it demonstrated an extraordinary ability, in comparison with other sectors, to survive in war conditions and realize its potential to meet domestic and external needs for food products and to ensure food security.
