In Ukraine, according to official figures, on the crop’s eve of 2007 crops were poseyany on the area of 26,1 million
In Ukraine, according to official figures, on the crop’s eve of 2007 crops were poseyany on the area of 26,1 million hectares, including, the agroenterprises on 18,6 million hectares (71,3 %), population farms – 7,5 million hectares (28,7 %). In comparison with 2006 the area of crops increased by 127,4 thousand hectares (for 0,5 %).
Farms of all categories collected 29,3 million t of grain (together with corn), from them food crops – 14,9 million t (51 %), fodder – 14,4 million t (49 %). In comparison with 2006 production of grain decreased by 14,5 % that is caused as reduction of the area of collecting by 765,8 thousand hectares, or by 5,4 %, and productivity fall by 2,3 c/hectares, or for 9,5 %.
Agricultural enterprises made 22,8 million t of grain (78 % from the general gross collecting), population farms – 6,5 million t (22 %). Productivity of grain crops in agricultural enterprises (22,3 c/hectares) is higher, than in population farms, on 2,1 centners.
Wheat it is received at level of 2006 – 14,6 million t. Better, than in previous years the corn crop on grain – 7,4 million t (for 15,5 % stood out more at expansion of the square at 10,6 %) and rice – 108 thousand t (for 8,5 %; at the expense of growth of productivity by 5,1 c/hectares). At the same time in connection with the adverse weather conditions, developed in the spring, gross collecting is much less, than in 2006; barley – 6 million t (for 47,3 % it is less), millet – 84,2 thousand t (for 31,8 %), oats – 0,5 million t (for 21,1 %), a rye – 0,6 million t (for 3,6 %), buckwheats – 217,3 thousand t (on 5,2 %).
Production of sunflower decreased by 21,6 % - to 4,2 million t that is caused as reduction of the area by 500,3 thousand hectares (for 12,8 %), and decrease in productivity on 1,4 c/hectares. The agroenterprises collected 3,4 million t (for 18,8 % less) sunflower at average productivity of 12,9 c/hectares against 13,7 c in 2006.
Gross collecting a sugar beet (factory) decreased more than by a quarter owing to reduction of the area of cultivation by 25,9 %. In the sum of sweet root crops dug out 17,1 million t at average productivity of 292,2 c/hectares in comparison with 284,7 c a year before.
At the expense of expansion of the area of crops production of a rape considerably grew –
to 1 53 million thousands t that for 73,9 % more than in 2006, and 91 % of a shaft gave the rapsozimy.
Production of potatoes in 2007 decreased by 1,9 %, vegetables – for 15,2 % that is caused by decrease in productivity of these cultures in population farms, respectively, for 1,6 and 12,2 %.
Volume of production of plodoyagodny production grew by 31,5 %, grapes – for 19,6 % and made, according to 1,5 million t and 360 thousand tons.
In farms of the population 98 % of the general crop of potatoes, 90 % - vegetables, 87 % - fruits and berries, 22 % - grains, 14 % - a sugar beet (factory) and 19 % - sunflower are grown up.
As a whole, last year gross production of plant growing in comparison with 2006 decreased by 9,4 %, thus, at agricultural enterprises – for 10,8 %, in population farms – for 8,5 %.
Animal husbandry in 2007 the animal husbandry output of products against 2006 decreased – for 0,4 %, including in population farms – for 4 %. In the agroenterprises growth made 6,6 %. In structure of realization by the cattle and bird enterprises on a face the part of a bird of all types made 54 % (in 2006 – 53 %), cattle – 22 % (26 %), pigs – 23 % (21 %).
The volume of cultivation of cattle and bird in the agroenterprises exceeded similar indicators of 2006 for 14 %, including birds – for 24 %, pigs – for 16 %, and cultivation of cattle decreased by 10 %. At the same time, the relations of volume of cultivation of cattle and a bird to realization of animals on a face in the agrarian enterprises were made by 99 % (in 2006 – 106 %). Last year through reduction the livestock of cows decreased production of milk by 8 %, including in the agrarian enterprises – for 11 % (growth of efficiency of animals insignificant). Average nady milk from a cow in agricultural enterprises made 3293 kg and as the statistics argues, grew against 2006 by 2 %, in population farms, on the contrary decreased by 1,3 % – to 39,95 kg.
For the beginning of January of this year private yards contained 66,1 % of the general a number of cattle (for January 1, 2007 – 62,8 %), including, cows – 78,4 % (77,2 %), pigs – 60,4 % (59,6 %), sheep and goats – 82,4 % (82,5 %), birds of all types – 52,8 % (56,6 %).
Comment
The statistics testifies: the total amount of agricultural products on all categories of farms for 2007 in comparison with 2006 was reduced by 5,6 %. Separately: in agricultural enterprises – for 4,3 %, in population farms – for 6,5 %. All adverse weather conditions – a heat, storms, dry winds – didn’t create a catastrophic damage to a crop: the grain were collected by 29,3 million tons. It more than is enough, for internal use. And still production of the grain was reduced by 14,5 %, thus for 9 % – at the expense of decrease in productivity. However it is necessary to tell, for agricultural producers who managed to grow up and reap a crop, year stood out profitable in comparison with the previous. The low shaft, increase in the prices at energy carriers, rise in price of agrarian production in the world market made to its considerable rise in price and at us. Sunflower collected much less, than in 2006. Respectively and its price already exceeds 3,5 thousand hryvnias for ton. On grain the price in a year grew practically twice. And not deficiency since a crop, and mirovyetendentsiya became the main reason of such jump (any more for the first time). Agroproduction there rises in price, because on a planet its consumption increases quicker, than production. And if to the Ukrainian producers has the luck to reap a crop at last year’s level, they would have still the bigger income. Because the price for a crop in domestic market, despite its considerable transitional stocks, went uphill. Now not how was before: a crop failure – the price high, it is generous urodilo – less. By the end of the past year, following the world prices, the ton of wheat of the third class cost already 1400 hryvnias. And in 2006 for it it was possible to manage to get only 600-800 hryvnias.
To say about that the rich field of this year will be more generous, give the grounds statistical data. Crops under winter grain considerably grew, in 2,5 times increased them under a rape. Rise in price of agricultural products promoted interest in expansion of the areas, and in agrobusiness with new force the structures, capable to invest money in agrarian and industrial complex reached. On forecasts, in case of favorable weather conditions, the grain yield in Ukraine can exceed 40 million tons.
As a whole, summing up year in plant growing, it is possible to tell that national agricultural production appeared quite viable though it it is impossible to tell about the separate enterprises and even the whole regions of Ukraine.
Situation in animal husbandry not such optimistical. Though production of meat increased, but considerably it occurred at the expense of reduction of a number of cattle. Considering that reduction annually makes nearly 10 %, there is a question: whom to cut further? Nearly 78 % of cows contain today in individual sector if further them systematically to cut out, our dairy industry, in the long term, in general remains without raw materials. Therefore in shops and further it is possible to expect rise in price of beef, pork, milk and molokoproduktov.
