The sown area in Ukraine for sunflower may be reduced this year to the lowest level in 13 years.
We are talking about an area of approximately 4.2-4.4 million hectares, which is 35% less than the area under sunflower sowing in 2021, APK-Inform reports.
This decline is due to the fact that the most active hostilities are now taking place in the main regions of sunflower cultivation: in Mykolaiv, Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, Kharkiv, Donetsk and Luhansk regions.
