No results found.Agriculture is a key sector of the national economy of Ukraine, accounting for approximately one sixth of Gross Domestic product (GDP). The country became a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO) in 2008, and signed the Association Agreement with the European Union (EU) at the end of 2014. This has led to new export opportunities in the agricultural and food processing sectors. At the same time, new policy approaches, instruments and institutions are needed to support further growth, as well as reforms to make these sectors more effective and competitive. Against this background, the Ministry of Agrarian Policy and Food of Ukraine (MAPF) prepared the Strategy for Agriculture and Rural Development 2015-2020. The overall objective of the strategy was to increase the competitiveness of the agricultural and food sectors and trade, and to promote rural development in a sustainable manner, in line with EU legislation and international standards. The Government of Ukraine requested that FAO provide technical assistance and policy support for MAPF in the implementation of the strategy in the following principal areas: i) land reform; ii) agrifood-chain development; and iii) improved access to internationalmarkets. -
