Ukrainian Agribusiness: Turning challenges into opportunities
The resilience and unmatched international support has allowed agribusinesses in Ukraine not only to survive, but also to launch an active recovery in agricultural production and processing.
The reconstruction and production processes in Ukraine's agricultural sector are actively financed through international donor assistance and national government programmes. In this regard, the Ukrainian agricultural industry finds itself in a unique situation that has the potential to create huge opportunities for foreign and Ukrainian businesses.
In order to make use of these opportunities, it is necessary to:
- soberly assess war-related risks rather than being merely spooked by them;
- understand the opportunities arising from such risks;
- be aware of the tools available to pursue these opportunities;
- understand the available options for mitigating risks.
As you know, a crisis is the best time to invest. The capitalisation of Ukraine's agricultural sector has a clear potential for growth in the short term. The war-induced crisis has strengthened and modernised Ukrainian agribusiness and created new possibilities for commercial and investment activities against the backdrop of wartime challenges.
