Agrane Agro Holding will plant more than 26 thou hectares of spring crops in the 2025 season, the company’s press service reported on Facebook.

According to the report, about 14 thou hectares will be allocated for corn, 12 thou hectares for sunflower and small areas for legumes and flax for diversification.

“Agrain Group operates on the principle that every drop of moisture is worth its weight in gold. We use modern technologies that help minimize water losses and create optimal conditions for germination and development of crops,” said Taras Kornienko, chief agronomist of the agricultural holding.

To preserve moisture, he said, the agroholding’s fields are harrowed and moisture sealed, Strip-Till technology is implemented, and drought-resistant hybrids are grown using flexible sowing dates.

Agrane added that the agroholding’s winter crops are in good condition due to timely fertilization and pest protection.

“Agrain is engaged in the cultivation and storage of grains and oilseeds, as well as livestock farming. Prior to the full-scale Russian invasion, the agricultural holding included 11 agricultural enterprises. It cultivated about 110,000 hectares in Zhytomyr, Kharkiv, Chernihiv, Odesa, and Cherkasy regions.

The holding is owned by SAS Investcompagnie (France).
