The situation is catastrophic: Ukraine's crops are disappearing for a reason that is not the most obvious

In Ukraine, the situation in the agricultural sector is causing concern due to the shortage of labor caused by mobilization. In agricultural companies, producers do not have enough hands to harvest the crops, forcing them to plow the crops instead of harvesting them. According to Vasyl Sasko, director of LAN AGRO, the situation is "catastrophic" because manual labor is necessary, but there are simply no people.

It is noted that due to these circumstances, prices for some products, including onions, may rise. Earlier it was reported that prices for this vegetable fell from UAH 50-70 to UAH 5-7 over the year, but with a shortage of labor, prices are likely to rise again. This could have a negative impact on consumers and the economy as a whole, as the shortage of products threatens food security.

With the situation continuing to deteriorate, agricultural companies are forced to look for solutions to attract labor to avoid further yield declines and economic losses. It is noted that there is already a shortage of young people, as many men have been drafted into the army. The government and farmers should pay attention to these challenges in the agricultural sector.
