Today, June 23, an online event was held within the IAMO FORUM 2022 “Effects due to the war in Ukraine”, which was attended by management and specialists of the State Soil Protection Institute.
The event is organized by the German-Ukrainian agropolitical dialogue.
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine continues to have far-reaching consequences for all social and economic spheres of Ukraine, as well as other countries in Europe and Asia. While the negative effects on agricultural production, trade and food security of importing countries were widely discussed, the event aimed to focus on less visible aspects, such as the impact on higher education and agricultural research in Ukraine, the mobility of migrants and refugees, as well as the impact on the economies of Central Asia.
During the meeting, a short-term forecast of the development of agricultural markets in Ukraine and the impact of the war on agricultural production and trade in food products was presented. In addition, the main economic challenges posed by the current crisis have been addressed.
The event was simultaneously translated into Ukrainian / English.
