As one of the key leaders in the cultivation of grain products in the world, Ukraine supplies the market with high-quality and in-demand food raw materials. Stable wheat export to EU depend on many variables. Including the features of packaging, transportation and ensuring the safety of grain crops from negative factors.
The advantage of wheat grown in Ukraine
Unlike other countries in the world, almost the entire territory of Ukraine has natural conditions for growing grain crops. Farmers need minimal or no fertilizer to grow crops. In addition, due to the optimal composition of the soil, grains after harvesting have the following advantages:
1. Optimal content of nutrients in the grains.
2. Lack of harmful chemical and radioactive components.
3. The grain has an optimal moisture content for transportation.
4. Does not contain any pests.
5. Can be transported to any corner of the planet by water transport.
Difficulties in transportation due to Russia’s military aggression towards Ukraine caused certain difficulties in the logistics of grain delivery. They increased its cost, but this in no way negatively affected its quality and safety. Consumers can, as before, count on high quality grain crops grown in optimal natural conditions.
Features of grain logistics
Unlike other goods transported by land and sea, grain raw materials need special conditions so that the food product does not receive any damage. First of all, it is necessary that the humidity level is maintained. As soon as it rises to a certain level, the grain begins to deteriorate or germinate. It can no longer be used as a raw material for flour production. Other features worth adding:
— packaging in special large plastic bags;
— storage on pallets for ease of loading;
— transportation by special dry cargo ships and grain carriers;
— protection from rodents and some types of insects.
Many consumers are interested in obtaining high-quality grain raw materials for the production of food and special feed for animals and poultry. Properly organized export not only ensures the safety of products in transit, but also guarantees minimal time delays. Even in conditions of military operations throughout almost the entire territory of Ukraine.
