Ukraine exports almost 6.5 million tones of wheat since the beginning of marketing year. Actual grain export volumes made up 19.86 million tones since the beginning of 2012/2013 marketing year.

Crop yield in Ukraine may exceed previous year's yield by 8-10 million tones.The crop yield in the current year, despite the weather abnormalities at the end of March, may be 54-56 million to- nes, which is 8-10 million up against 2012. This forecast was made public by Director General of the Ukrainian Agrarian Confederation (UAC) Serhiy Stoyanov at a press conference in Kyiv. Last year, the crop yield made up 46.2 million tones against 56.7 million tones in 2011.

Ukraine's export potential requires intensive development of grain market infrastructure. Grain harvest in Ukraine in 2015 may reach 60 million tones, and the harvest of oil-bearing crops 14 million tones, which will significantly increase the export potential of the agricultural sector. At the same time, infrastructure support for the bread market is becoming vital, APK-Inform experts say. "Exports of bulk agricultural products (including grain and oilseed processing products) from Ukraine in 2015 may reach 41.4 million tones. However, to ensure effective transportation of these volumes, certified grain storage capacities are required for a total of 45.5 million tones, as well as 8.1 thousand specialized road carriers with a capacity of more than 30 tones, 11.9 tho-usand rail carriers, and the possibility of carriage of about 5.6 million tones of bulk cargos by rivers to sea ports," experts say.

Ukraine, together with the world's largest grain-producing countries, may create Grain Twenty.

This was dealt with during the meeting between the Minister of Agricultural Policy and Food of Ukraine, Mykola Prysiazhniuk, and Director of the Agribusiness Department of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) Gilles Mettetal.

on, during the meeting the sides discussed EBRD's cooperation with Ukraine's agribusiness, and agreed to continue it in grain growing, poultry farming and machine-building.

"I am pleased that all the projects that you support in Ukraine's agricultural sector with lending are successful.

OOO NPP Kherson Machine-Building Plant (KhMBP) – is the unique plant in Ukraine, specia-

lizing on the production of complex agricultural machinery. The company has a 125-year histo-

ry, and already has consolidated its position at the market as a producer of agriculture equipment, which successfully combines modern technologies, maximum reliability and durability, high professionalism and responsibility to customers.

At the end of XX century the plant started serial production of self-propelled combine harvesters SLAVUTYCH, which were the “business card" of Kherson Machine-Building Plant for a long time. Since 2012 the production of SKIF self-propelled combine harvesters - updated version of SLAVUTYCH combine harvesters – was started. Nowadays KhMBP serially produces four mo-

dels of SKIF combine harvesters: SKIF-230, SKIF-230A, SKIF-250, SKIF-250R. The plant is also planning to start serial production of two more models SKIF-290 and SKIF-330 in future. Besides self-propelled combine harvesters Kherson Machine-Building Plant also produces wide range of other agricultural equipment: reapers for harvesting grain crops, reapers for harvesting of corn and sunflower, devices for rapeseed and mustard harvesting, reaper carriers, pickup plat-

forms.

Today more than 1000 combine harvesters SLAVUTYCH, 3000 reapers for corn harvesting and more than 5000 reapers for sunflower harvesting are working on the Ukrainian fields.The KhMBP`s equipment is popular not only in Ukraine. For many years the plant is a reliable sup- plier of agricultural machinery for customers from Russia, Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria, Serbia, Montenegro.

The high quality of the products can be proven by the numerous gold medals and awards won at international exhibitions. In 2008 the International Academy of Rating Technologies "Golden Fortune" has awarded Kherson Machine-Building Plant the certificate “UNIVERSAL QUALI-

TY” in nomination "Leaders of machine-building sector of Ukraine”.

A key factor of company`s success is a high quality of the products that is assured by the stable quality control at all production stages – starting from testing of parts and components and finis-

hing by testing of ready combine harvesters and reapers. That is why every customer must be confident in high quality and reliability of agricultural machinery produced by Kherson Machi-

ne-Building Plant.
