The modern challenges for the food safety of Ukraine

Abstract

From 20 to 30 percent of the population in developed countries is involved in agribusiness, thanks to which it remains one of the most budget-filling and profitable in the world. Today, the agricultural sector is developing most strongly in the United States of America (up to 12 percent of GDP). Since the European region cannot provide itself with agricultural products and raw materials in full, the agroindustrial complex is formed in such a way that global connections are taken into account. Agribusiness in Ukraine has great potential for development, as it has the largest area of agricultural land in Europe (41.5 million hectares, or up to 70 percent of the total territory). About 25% of the world's chernozem soils with a high level of fertility are concentrated in Ukraine. The agricultural sector accounts for more than 10% of GDP and is one of the most important export sectors. The agro-industrial complex is constantly developing, which is explained by the proximity of the main sales markets, the existing infrastructure, including transport, and the constant growth of global demand for food products. Given that Ukraine is one of the world's leading exporters of grain and oil crops, russia's military invasion of our territory had a significant impact on agribusiness and food safety around the world
