Ukraine entered the top suppliers of agricultural products in the EU

Ukraine became the fourth in the ranking of suppliers of agricultural products to the EU

Ukraine took the fourth place in the rating of suppliers – it was bypassed by Brazil, the USA and the UK.

In the rating of suppliers of agricultural products to the European Union, Ukraine took the fourth place. About this with reference to the EU trade report informs Aagroportal.ua on Monday 26 July.

In January-April 2021, the export of agricultural products from Ukraine to the EU amounted to € 1.87 billion, which is € 452 million or 19.4% less than the same period last year.

Ukraine and the United Kingdom were among the countries whose exports to the EU in terms of agricultural products decreased the most in the first four months of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020.

As the newspaper writes, the decline in exports was due to a decrease in the supply of corn and sunflower seeds to the EU. In total, Ukraine accounts for 4.9% of the total export of such products to the EU.

Ukraine in the ranking of suppliers of agricultural products was bypassed by Brazil, the USA and the UK. Immediately after Ukraine, China is in the ranking of suppliers of agricultural products to the EU. These countries account for 34% of the total EU imports.

The total volume of agricultural trade for the EU countries, including export and import operations, in the period from January to April of this year amounted to € 103.4 billion, 1.1% less than in the same period in 2020.

Let us remind you that earlier the EC spoke about prospects in the EU market for Ukraine… Ukraine is a priority partner for the EU and now cooperation extends to the field of raw materials and batteries, the EC said.
