20 July , 2026  

The “Agrotrade” Group has begun the 2026 harvest, during which early grain and oilseed crops will be harvested this year on an area of over 20,000 hectares, the company’s press service reported.

“We have mobilized a sufficient number of machines, including 25 combine harvesters and a large number of trucks for transporting grain, to carry out the harvest without delays, since after the harvest is complete, we will begin planting winter rapeseed, followed by wheat. Our main task is to harvest the crop—which the team has been working on all year—in a timely and high-quality manner,” the press service quoted Ivan Kryuchkov, director of the group’s agro-industrial department, as saying.

According to the report, three of the company’s clusters were the first to join the harvest campaign. In the Poltava region, threshing of winter rapeseed has begun, while in the Chernihiv region, threshing of winter rapeseed and winter barley has started. The Kharkiv cluster will join the harvest once the seed winter wheat has reached the required maturity.
The company noted that this year, early crops will be harvested across four clusters. The area planted with winter rapeseed totals 8,230 hectares, winter barley—523 hectares, and winter wheat—11,500 hectares. The total area under these crops exceeds 20,000 hectares.

The Agrotrade Group is a vertically integrated holding company that cultivates over 70,000 hectares of land. It owns a network of grain elevators with a capacity of 570,000 metric tons and a seed plant based at the “Kolos” farm (Kharkiv Oblast). The founder and CEO is Vsevolod Kozhemyako.
