As of November 28, farmers have also harvested 17,079.3 thousand tons of oilseed crops, including:
Sunflower – 9,019.3 thousand tons from 4,800.3 thousand ha
Soybeans – 4,743.2 thousand tons from 2,000.4 thousand ha

Farmers have also dug up 10,274.1 thousand tons of sugar beets from 192.2 thousand ha (97% of planted area).
“We expect up to 60 million tons of grain and up to 20 million tons of oilseeds. The harvested volume is fully sufficient to ensure food security for Ukrainians and maintain a stable feed base for the livestock sector. Around two-thirds of production will be exported, meaning Ukraine remains an important guarantor of global food security and a reliable partner. A significant share will be processed domestically, creating added value and strengthening our export potential,”
said Taras Vysotskyi, Deputy Minister of Economy, Environment and Agriculture of Ukraine.
Farmers have also almost completed winter crop sowing, planting 6,429.9 thousand ha, including:
Wheat – 4,692.8 thousand ha
Barley – 586.1 thousand ha
Rye – 66.3 thousand ha
Rapeseed – 1,084.7 thousand ha
Compared to the previous season, the structure of planted areas remains largely stable.
The main focus remains on winter wheat, which traditionally forms the basis of the country’s food supply. This means Ukrainian farmers have already laid the foundation for the 2026 harvest.
