LVIV, Ukraine, April 4 (Reuters) - Ukraine's agriculture minister said on Monday he expects "quite a large harvest" this year and hopes Ukraine will be able to export grain, but warned that continuation of the war would mean higher prices for all countries.
Food and Agriculture Organisation director-general Qu Dongyu also highlighted that Russia and Ukraine collectively make up more than a third of global cereal exports.
Mykola Solskyi, the new Ukraine's Minister of Agrarian Policy and Food, in an exclusive interview to CGTN's reporter Wu Lei, mentioned that the Ukraine can't export the amount of grain that they usually do. Moreover, the conflict has greatly influenced the sowing season that has already started in Ukraine.
