If Ukrainian agricultural producers will not be able to export grain in the face of Russian aggression, they will begin to reduce its production and switch to other types of production, for example, biofuel. This opinion was expressed by the president of the Ukrainian Grain Association, Mykola Gorbachev, Glavkom writes.

"If it will be expensive for our country to export this year, if producers suffer losses or, God forbid, go bankrupt, Ukraine simply will not produce such a large amount of grain. We do not need the 100 million tons of grain that were grown before the war, but we will fully provide for ourselves if we work four times less," he said.

According to the UZA president's forecast, in this case, Ukrainian agricultural producers can concentrate on something else, for example, on the production of biogas or some kind of biofuel.

"If it will be too expensive for them to export grain, then they can grow some alfalfa and make biogas from alfalfa. And at the same time not knowing the problems with export. And then it will be difficult in terms of investment to transfer them to the cultivation of agricultural products that fed the world," he said.
