ukraine harvest

Thanks for the report. Can you be more specific of what areas you visited? I had a different impression of the north western areas that I've seen, probably more like only 1 in 10 being in production. Southern areas are much more like you've described, and modernizing fast, motivated by the sanctions which are backfiring in a big way.

Sorry my mistake i did mean to say 1 acre out of 10 is farmed. I was mostly in Tyver oblast which is about 4 hours northwest of Moscow.There is good farmland and there is a lot of lumber produced there too. You could leave a modern city like Tyver and be in the backwoods in an hour like stepping back in time.
What impressed me in the forests was the sheer size and height of the the trees especially birch as compared to here.

Guys had to get on roof top one of them is still alive saw a newspaper interview his comment about the show was he hoped it would bring out some truths, he didnt say it was factual either chose his words well.

Russian #wheat yield is declining fast. 3.8 mt/ha as of Jul 12, which is -3% YoY. And 2018 was a mediocre year in terms of yield. However, lower average yield also reflects an early harvest campaign.

That's alot of fingers on one hand.

Full glasses of vodka can do that to a person also. I know this to be true.
