KIEV, Aug. 19 – The share of bread wheat in the current year will top 40% of the overall wheat yield in Ukraine, the Agriculture Policy Ministry forecasts.

"We project that bread wheat will account for over 40% of the overall yield of wheat," Anatoliy Rozgon, the director of the ministry's agricultural market development department, told reporters on Tuesday.

As he put it, in spite of a reduction in the share of bread wheat in 2008, Ukraine will not face problems with its supply. In particular, Ukrainian agri-businesses have already harvested over 25 million tons of wheat, while domestic demand is only about 5 million tons.
