Ukraine to increase rye production

Rye in Ukraine has chances to return some lost positions and become attractive for agricultural producers in the terms of improving of cultivating technologies, declared Ukrainian club of agrarian business.

From the middle of 1990th, rye sowings in Ukraine ceded own positions to more profitable and high-yield crops, like maize, wheat, rapeseed. At he same time, rye harvesting areas lowered to the level of 0.4-0.45 mln ha. But according to the analysis of specialists of Ukrainian club of agrarian business, beginning from 2008, rye growing started showing rather good economic results.

During 2008, agricultural economies of all varieties produced nearly 1.1 mln tonnes of rye with the average profitability of 13-15%, due to rather high selling prices at the level of 970 UAH/t, informed Andrew Tovstopyat, the analyst of plant growing markets of the organization.
