Ukraine to increase food supply under WFP projects - agriculture ministry

Ukraine is studying the possibility of increasing the supply of food under the World Food Program (WFP). This was considered at a meeting in Rome by Agricultural Policy and Food Minister of Ukraine Mykola Prysiazhniuk and Executive Director of the World Food Program Ertharin Cousin, UKRINFORM learned from the press service of the Ukrainian agriculture ministry.

"In particular, the parties discussed the possibility of increased supplies of Ukrainian food within the WFP projects, which, in the opinion of the parties, is quite logical in view of the global recognition of Ukraine as a major exporter of agricultural products. Cousin showed interest in the Ukrainian agriculture ministers proposal on the need to further develop the system of monitoring food reserves in provider countries, as well as on the need to establish a grain reserve mechanism, which would make it possible to respond more quickly to the urgent needs of WFP member countries for food, arising due to economic challenges and natural disasters," the ministry informs.

In addition, the sides noted the political and practical value that the program could gain from Ukraines joining the WFP Executive Board, and agreed on the need for the simultaneous activation of humanitarian work of Ukraine as a donor of food, including on joint donation terms.

The WFP Executive Director welcomed the invitation of the Ukrainian agriculture minister to visit this country, as well as the proposal on the participation of program representatives in international agricultural forums held annually by the Ministry of Agricultural Policy and Food of Ukraine.
