KYIV, Sept 5 – Bayer has started the construction of additional production facilities at the Monsanto plant in the village of Pochuiky (Zhytomyr region) for the production of corn seeds, in which EUR60 million is invested, said head of Zhytomyr regional military administration Vitaliy Bunechko.

"Today, together with the director of Monsanto Seeds LLC Volodymyr Onyschenko, we laid a symbolic "time capsule" at the construction site of the new facilities of this enterprise. More than EUR60 million of additional investments during the war is the best evidence not only of international support for Ukraine, but also of the fact that large investors believe in our victory," he wrote on Telegram.
