During the whole period of the antiterrorist operation, Ukraine lost nearly 1.5 mln tonnes of grains in the territory of the Crimea and uncontrollable parts of Donetsk and Lugansk oblasts, declared Oleksiy Pavlenko, Minister of Agrarian Policy and Food of Ukraine, on January 22.
As a reminder, according to the Ministry of Agrarian Policy, Donetsk and Lugansk oblasts processed grains throughout nearly 1 mln ha of agricultural lands, and the harvest losses in the region will not affect the general food security of the country.
