UKRAINE – A VIEW OF AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION AND INTERNATIONAL TRADE

Camelia Gavrilescu

Agricultural Economics and Rural Development, 2022, vol. 19, issue 1, 31-40

Abstract: The present paper gives a brief overview of the current position of Ukraine in the European and world agri-food markets. It analyses the main evolutions of the country’s agri-food exports and imports, as well as the composition of trade flows for the main commodity groups. The analysis shows that Ukraine gradually increased its presence in the Single Market after 2012, but much more after the enforcement of the DCFTA (Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Agreement) with the EU in 2017. The latest events (war started in February 2022) are expected to diminish the agricultural production and exports, given the shortage of inputs (fertilizers, diesel, labour) and blockage of the ports in Azov and Black Sea that were the main points of shipping the exported products to their various destinations.
