Minister of Agrarian Policy and Food of Ukraine Mykola Solskyi held a meeting with Canada's Minister of International Development Harjit Sajjan. The topic of the discussions were the issues of grain storage and export, supply of alternative energy sources and providing the country with fertilizers. It was Canada that was one of the first to provide financial assistance for the purchase of means for temporary storage of crops.

Unfavorable weather conditions and the consequences of the military invasion, which led to a lack of profit for this year's produced products, doubted the financial ability of farmers to sow fields with winter wheat or barley.

The Minister of Agricultural Policy and Food of Ukraine emphasized the need to supply additional sources of energy for farmers and agricultural producers. The provision by diesel generators will be a real way out of the energy collapse caused by the enemy.

Besides this, the parties discussed the possibility of providing Ukraine with various types of fertilizers. In particular, regarding the supply of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium.
