In May of this year, the value of exports increased to $432.7 per ton. For comparison, in 2024 this figure was $315 per ton.

“This is clear evidence that Ukraine is increasingly exporting products with higher added value. In total, our farmers exported products worth $2 billion 29 million, shipping 4.69 million tons,” said the Minister of Agrarian Policy and Food of Ukraine Vitaliy Koval.

Top importing countries of Ukrainian agricultural products in May 2025 (by value):

• Turkey — $404.9 million;

• Netherlands — $147.4 million;

• Poland — $138.3 million;

• Italy — $127.7 million;

• Egypt — $109.8 million.

According to the minister, the development of deep agro-processing is a priority of the Ministry of Agrarian Policy and recently Ukraine has achieved concrete results in this area.

Thus, butter exports amounted to $20.5 million (2.9 thousand tons). This is $7,077 per ton of product. Juices (fruit and vegetable): exported for $19.8 million (almost 9 thousand tons). In conversion, this is $2,213 per ton.

“The figures show that Ukrainian products are competitive and in demand on world markets. We continue to work on establishing Ukraine as a supplier of quality products with high added value,” said Vitaliy Koval.

At the same time, Ukrainian grain exports in May halved compared to the same period last year.

As previously reported by USM, as of early May, more than 5 thousand vessels had passed through the maritime corridor to the ports of the Odesa region since August 2024.
