Ukrainian agrarians have to increase the share of alternative crops in the structure of agricultural production, including pulses, the Minister of Agrarian Policy and Food of Ukraine Taras Kutovyi declared.
According to him, cultivation of pulses allows diversifying agricultural crops production and improving the soil quality.
For example, India is one of the largest countries-importers of pulses from Ukraine. But the potential of Ukrainian agrarian sector in the sphere is nowhere near exhausted. Ukraine uses its potential of pulses export at 10% only, the minister said. (APK-Inform/Business World Magazine)
