In 2022, farmers of Ukraine will plant about 14.2 mln ha with spring agricultural crops, down 20% compared to the last year, the prime-minister Denys Shmygal said.

“As of April 18, we expect our farmers to plant 14.2 mln ha with spring agricultural crops over the territory controlled by Ukraine. This is 2.7 mln ha less than in 2021. Thus, we will plant more than 80% of the last year’s spring area”, – he said.

The state supports the spring planting campaign providing farmers with interest free loans.
