KYIV, Nov 14 – There are no reasons for concern due to the threat to internal food security, despite the fact that 20% of agricultural land compared to pre-war 2021 is still not available for cultivation, assured First Deputy Minister of Agrarian Policy and Food Taras Vysotsky.

“Unfortunately, at present, part of the land is under temporary occupation, so the reduction (in food production) is due to the fact that about 20% of the land, compared to 2021, is still not available for cultivation. However, there are no reasons for concern. There is no threat to domestic food security," he said.
