We invite you to join the online event “Organic Export During the War”, which will take place on June 23, 2022 from 10:30 to 14:00.
Ukraine is now in the military, agrarian and informational frontlines.
Despite the military action and threats in our country, Ukraine continues to make a significant contribution to global food security – the sowing campaign 2022 is underway, alternative logistics routes are being developed to supply Ukrainian agricultural products abroad and the European Commission has abolished tariffs and quotas on Ukrainian exports, as well as suspended additional official controls on organic products originating from Ukraine applied in 2015-2021.
