Agro-industrial holding Astarta, the largest sugar producer in Ukraine, received 40 grain cars from the USAID Economic Resilience Activity, the donor organization’s press service reported on Facebook.

"They will increase the annual export of Ukrainian grain by 44,000 tonnes, and this will help feed the world. USAID’s assistance will also allow Astarta-Kyiv to offer better conditions and more favorable prices to Ukrainian agricultural producers, which will directly improve their well-being," the report says.

USAID is confident that such assistance not only strengthens Ukraine’s economy thanks to large export revenues, but also helps Ukrainian farmers and plays an important role in ensuring global food security.

Astarta is a vertically integrated agro-industrial holding operating in eight regions of Ukraine.
