Ukraine’s government aims to raise the share of processed products in agricultural exports to 63% by 2027, from 47.8% last year, while growing total agricultural export volume by at least $4 billion, according to the Cabinet of Ministers’ newly approved Action Program.
To reach the target, the government plans to expand state support mechanisms for domestic agricultural producers of goods with a significant import component and open at least 10 new commodity markets in 2027. The program also calls for launching an institute of agricultural attachés and a new loan-guarantee instrument for processors through the Partial Loan Guarantee Fund in Agriculture.
A separate line item targets higher processing of agricultural waste and raw materials, including from crop and livestock production, into biofuel.
The Ministry of Agrarian Policy’s stated goal is to transform the sector into a highly productive, technological, innovative, and investment-attractive industry with high added value and a larger processing share.
The share of processed goods in Ukraine’s agricultural exports rose to 47.8% in 2025 from 40% in 2024, according to the Ministry of Economy, Environment and Agriculture, with raw materials accounting for the remaining 52.2% and 60%, respectively.
The Cabinet of Ministers approved the government’s Action Program on August 17. Verkhovna Rada Speaker Ruslan Stefanchuk said parliament will review it shortly under standard procedure.
