In 2025, Agro-Region will return to traditional crop rotation, the agricultural holding’s press service reported on Facebook.
“Returning to traditional crop rotation will allow the company to use resources more efficiently, ensuring stability and increased yields,” said Ivan Andriychuk, director of the agroholding’s Kyiv cluster.
According to him, Agro-Region has already allocated 1.5 thou hectares for winter wheat, which is 14.6% of the total production area and is 11% less than in 2024. The area under soybeans has been reduced by one third – 1.4 thou hectares (13.7%) and halved under sunflower – 1.8 thou hectares (17.6%). At the same time, the area under winter rapeseed increased by 15% to 1.1 thou hectares (10.7%) and corn doubled to 4.6 thou hectares (43.4%).
Mr. Andriychuk explained that the company responds promptly to changes in agricultural prices, military risks and staff shortages, which also affect crop rotation adjustments.
“These factors help us to remain adaptable and ensure stable operations in the face of global challenges,” he summarized.
Agro-Region owns a land bank of 39 thousand hectares in Kyiv, Chernihiv, Zhytomyr and Khmelnytsky regions. It specializes in crop production. It consists of 11 companies organized into four crop production clusters. It has two elevators: Boryspil with a capacity of 73 thousand tons and Myropil with a capacity of 52 thousand tons.
Agro-Region’s annual harvest of grains and oilseeds is up to 200 thousand tons.
In April 2021, the Swedish company Lobiu Sala AB, owned by the former Minister of Economy of Ukraine Aivaras Abromavičius, received permission from the Antimonopoly Committee of Ukraine to buy the Swedish Agro Region Stockholm Holding, which manages the Agro-Region group of companies in Ukraine.
