KIEV, July 1 – Prices of newly harvested grain in Ukraine could fall by at least 30% due to the introduction of exports duties on grain and the cancellation of VAT refunding to grain traders from July 1, 2011, according to experts.

"We expect that the prices of grain crops will fall by at least 30%," President of the Ukrainian Agribusiness Club Alex Lissitsa said at a press conference in Kiev on Thursday.
