Ukraine: Farms planning to sow 1.02 mln ha of winter barley this year

Ukrainian farms had sown 356,040 hectares of winter grains for the 2022 harvest as of Sept 13 or 5% of the expected area of 7.84 million hectares, the agriculture ministry said on September 14.

The area will include 6.68 million hectares of winter wheat, 1.02 million hectares of winter barley and some area of rye, it said.

Farmers had sown 331,170 hectares of winter wheat and 10,100 hectares of winter barley, the ministry said in a statement.

It also said Ukraine would sow 1.03 million hectares of winter rapeseed and the sowing was 75% complete.

Last year, the autumn drought reduced the area planted with winter grains, and farmers sowed 6.1 million hectares of winter wheat, 954,700 hectares of winter barley and 125,200 hectares of rye for the 2021 harvest.

One of the major grain growers and exporters globally, Ukraine plans to harvest a record 80.6 million tonnes of grain in 2021.
