Grain Production, M tons Grain Export, M tons

For five consecutive years now (2013-2017) Ukraine has been harvesting over 60M tons of grains and 17M tons of oilseeds on average annually

Ukraine is the largest sunflower oilseeds producer in the world

Over 65% of produced grains and 22% of

  • ilseeds are exported annually

Produced Crops Variety & Yields Potential

Despite favorable climate and soil conditions, average crop yields in Ukraine are still lower than in Western Europe and far below its genetic potential Ukraine still has significant upside to improve yields and increase margins:

Crop yields could rise by 50% on average just through the use of new technologies Many farming companies (incl. AgroGeneration) are consistently achieving (and exceeding) US and EU yields at lower costs

Transport Infrastructure

The total transport network includes around 22k km of railroads, 164k km of auto roads, 2k km of

  • perational river shipping routes with access to the

Azov and Black seas

Logistics Performance Index (LPI)1 in Ukraine according to World Bank 2016 report equals to 2.7 compared to the highest of over 4 in selected European countries, the US, and Japan

Ukraine has well-developed infrastructure to support agricultural exports, which still requires quality and efficiency improvements

Ukraine can ship over 40M tons of grains and oilseeds annually through its 11 sea ports (terminals)

Over 60% of shipping volumes are concentrated in the Odesa region (Odesa, Illichivsk, and Yuzhny ports)

Existing storage infrastructure of 47M tons allows immediate storage of 70-80% of annual harvest

An additional 15M tons will be needed to ensure that 100% of the currently harvested grains can be safely stored Poltava, Odesa, Vinnitsa, Kharkiv, and Dnipro regions possess the largest storage volumes in Ukraine, jointly accounting for 38% of total storage capacity in volume terms
