The largest increase in sowings compared to 2024 was noted for wheat, where the area increased by 7.1 thousand hectares, which is 29.9%.

However, according to the National Statistical Committee, in 2025, 1,087 hectares of cereal crops were destroyed and written off, including 318 hectares of wheat and 769 hectares of barley. The main reasons for the losses include severe drought with low germination, as well as the negative impact of natural disasters such as hail, mudslides, heat, and frosts.

As a result, in 2025, the total mass of harvested grain (excluding legumes, rice, and buckwheat after processing) amounted to 1 million 789 thousand tons, which is 14.2% less than the previous year. The decrease in harvest volumes is associated with a decline in the yield of cereals (excluding legumes, rice, and buckwheat) by 15.3% compared to the previous year.
