KYIV, Sept 26 - Exports of organic products from Ukraine to the countries of the European Union and Switzerland in January-June 2022 increased by 19.4% compared to the first half of 2021 - up to 160,020 tons from 128,840 tons, this happened despite problems with logistics and the blockade of Ukrainian seaports due to full-scale Russian aggression.

According to the website of the information portal OrganicInfo, by the end of 2022, Ukraine is expected to reduce land under organic products due to the temporary occupation of its southern regions. At the same time, in the Ukrainian territories liberated from Russian occupation in early April, the work of organic producers has been almost completely resumed this season.
