[000:00:00;00] uh, with the ugledar jet artillery, in fact, if you look at what the strike has already turned into, you will not see the difference even with mariupol, which is in ruins, and not with the soledar, with what they formed . it is clear to us that the ugledar point is very desirable for them, because it is also close to mariupol and the front line is so demarcated, that's why they are really systematically holding on to volodar zary, and they are preparing, i already said that they are pulling all their forces, we understand that these are reserves for the next attack for the dominions, we are sure that ours fell asleep , they see it, they know it and will be ready for it civilian life is difficult. the only thing that can be said to the people who are still in uglodar is that they must evacuate because the future is the fastest in the near future under any conditions . it is known that their life will be turned into hell for the russians, to life in basements, to

life without infrastructure, as long as there is an opportunity to be calm they should understand that ukraine meets all its citizens with everyone helps, it is a very difficult decision to leave home under such conditions, but it is worth doing because in the future , unfortunately, it will only get worse. thank you, petro andryushchenko the adviser to the mayor of the city of mariupol was in touch with us finalizing about the donetsk region on january 31, the russians killed four residents of donetsk region , two in bahmut . set exactly the number of victims in mariupol and volnovas, well, now 8:00 is already 0:1, even economic news andrii yanitskyi will introduce us to them after the economic news

, we return to our studio andriy yanitskyi with economic news on the espresso tv channel weekdays at 8 a.m. with a repeat at 11:00 p.m. you can also watch us on the internet on the youtube channel of the espresso tv channel and not just watch . they also know the truth about the economy. today we have a big agrarian topic, we will talk about agriculture with pavel martyshev from the agricultural center of the kyiv school of economics, mr. pavly, congratulations

, mr. pavlyche, you can hear us good day good day let's start the day with the devastating event of last year's full-scale invasion of russia into ukraine . how did it affect our agriculture? if you can compare the state of agriculture before this invasion and after. this is a catastrophic impact on our agribusiness, we estimate losses of approximately 41:42 billion dollars for the 22nd year. of them, 6 billion are direct losses from infrastructure damage and 35 billion are losses are indirect costs from a number of negative factors, in particular, a decrease in domestic prices for agricultural products and

a reduction in production, that is, the negative impact is significant , it continues. year was 108 million tons, yes, the impact is truly catastrophic, and you said about the damage caused, that there are tens of billions of dollars. and can we hope that this damage will somehow be compensated for account of russia and in what way is there already some mechanism or is it worked out and is this skoda fixed properly the mechanism is er in december there was a large round table organized by minagro and already in fact all regulatory er acts er regarding

compensation they adopted, a methodology for fixing losses was also developed, and we expect that compensation for these losses will be, but since it will be at the expense of e-e, mainly international donors or at the expense of frozen assets, it may be a rather long process, and i do not understand what is possible such compensation is most likely only after the victory. is it still possible to expect that this money is frozen abroad if it is transferred to ukraine before the end of the war, it is possible even earlier, but it seems to me that after all, it is a long process, it is a bureaucratic process, and it is at least a few months, well, a few months is not a few years, in principle, you can wait, uh, if we are talking about such sums

, i hope that the frozen assets will be transferred as soon as possible, as far as i understand, there is an amount of about 300 billion frozen abroad or even more maybe you should ask specialists, but the agricultural sector is enough, you have to fight for your property. and how did the farmers adapt to the wartime situation? you said that the production of oil crops decreased and the production of wheat also decreased. it is also possible that the farmers chose some other crops and perhaps went more into processing and not in e.e. cultivation or from crop production and animal husbandry, you observe some such processes, the first process of adaptation is observed - the farmers went to the shadow, that is , they began to sell it for cash, and this is a mandatory condition for their survival, unfortunately e.e. let's say that the state policy partly stimulated this because

the state continues to block tax invoices and continues not to reimburse the vat credit that must be returned to the agrarians, that is, there is such a confrontation to the regret of the agrarians and the state. as for the change in the structure of production, we expect that the share of oil crops will increase in the spring crops because they are more marginal , they have a higher price and a lower yield, this means that they are easier to transport abroad , and at the same time, transportation costs are a small part of their final price, in contrast to grain crops, in contrast to wheat, corn and barley, you said that the state is not that it does not help, but even well, it does not fulfill its main role, it does not reimburse the taxes paid to exporters, although our ministries of the ministry of agricultural policy have repeatedly stated that it helps a lot

to farmers that there are special and credit programs , something is possible, and for the benefit of the officials, you can say whether or not to brag, that is , there was significant progress this year , and this year the state agrarian register became operational an analogue of the action for farmers, and quite a lot of our agrarians are already registered in it, in general, several main support programs for agrarians are foreseen. for lending 57-9 and this is a number of other payments

, i.e. let's say that the state really helps the government, but you can attribute the program regarding the supply of sleeves, this is storage for the storage of land, and other programs, that is, the state is included in support, but on the other hand, it blocks tax revenues, i hope that this will be overcome and i know that farmers still have a powerful political lobby, they can influence such decisions, and if it is not about some fraudulent schemes, but really about the return of paid taxes, which exporters do not have to pay, since it is an internal tax then this money should be put on. and what amount is it about? what amount has frozen or is there such generalized data , it is difficult to say, you have to look there, it is constantly changing, since now

the grain corridor has also been launched, so this amount is increasing, well, that is, after all, it is about billions and not about not about millions and whether there are millions yes grain corridor you mentioned this by the way also in principle the achievement of the state of our ministry of foreign affairs and our negotiators and who were able to agree both with the organization of the united nations and with the turkish side e-e about the fact that such a mechanism for exporting food from ukraine by sea is possible, how does this corridor currently work, or can it be considered that it is a reliable way for ukrainian grain to world markets? so far, it is not reliable, and we see that it is slowing down because the russian side

it blocks inspections of our vessels at the host and now two or three vessels pass a day, and it should pass about 12. that is, there is already a queue there, a whole queue is already standing on the bosphorus with ukrainian dry cargoes and in general the grain corridor - this is a good initiative , more than 18 million grains were already exported at the beginning of august but we see some problems precisely from the russian side, well, it's not surprising that russia wanted to abandon the grain corridor in general and sent such a signal in the middle of november. we remember that it seems that the first period of validity was valid until november 19 of the grain corridor and further, it should either continue automatically or be canceled and russia tried to cancel demanded the transportation of its ammonia through the territory of ukraine from the odesa port, fortunately it did not achieve its goal and the grain corridor

continued to work even without the consent of russia , at least without full agreement, is there a risk that it will completely block the passage of ukrainian grain, how is this possible , only military, or are there any diplomatic, economic tricks that russia can use, it is difficult to say, it all depends on geopolitical context, now it seems to me that these risks are reduced compared to what we expected in the fall. that is, we see that russia gave back in the fall. when they started, well, they said about terminating the agreement. yes, then they returned the whole agreement. it seems to me that the corridor will continue to work, but there will be problems precisely with the inspection still harms russia even during, as if before the implementation of the agreement reached before, and this, i think, must somehow affect

world food prices. last year , they reached, well, some incredible values even the united nations began to talk about the fact that some countries are threatened with a food crisis, now it seems that prices have gone down, although it is impossible to say that we have fully restored the expert, what is happening with food prices in the world and food prices in ukraine, and look in ukraine they are growing plus to insignificant harvests this year as far as world prices are concerned and they really er decreased due to many factors let's briefly divide all this into three sectors the first sector is er

food grain - this is wheat, mainly here there was significant dumping from russia, from australia, where significant crops were harvested, in addition , prices were negatively affected by the macro-economic situation, that is, the prospects of a recession in the world and, accordingly, a decrease in global demand and prices decreased. if we talk about fodder crops this is corn, eh, there is a eh relative increase in prices , in particular, on the cherkasy exchange due to the service in argentina, due to active demand from china and the third sector - it is vegetable oils, the situation here is stable because the production of palm oil in malaysia, it is quite large, and we expect a record crop of soybeans in brazil, pro-ukrainian prices are closer to malaysia, brazil is of course interesting. but i think that the audience is primarily

interested in the products in the stores. oil, which has increased in price incredibly and even disappeared in some stores, just fell asleep and about eggs and who did not say that eggs have become too expensive and there were so many jokes on the internet about this this year in 2023, the current ones are weak there are positions that you can worry about. it is possible to buy in advance and sign up to buy in advance. hmm, it will not work because we are talking about offers of meat and dairy products , and yet, the cost of feed is increasing in our country and the profitability of livestock farming is decreasing. this leads to the fact that livestock in particular, cattle and pigs

, it continues to decrease, at the same time , meat imports are very expensive for us due to the collapse of the hryvnia. accordingly, we expect a continuation of the rapid rise in prices for meat and dairy products. a cow and not to hope that it will be possible to buy milk is too cheap. well, as an option. yes. who can afford it? who has a private yard, please? here is some economic advice for you. this is some economic advice . well, we are witnessing a very warm winter, it is possible will it somehow help our farmers or a warm winter is actually not luck but rather the weather conditions themselves, i.e. winter crops are in a state of winter dormancy, if they were uh warmer this uh could

cause certain risks, say in france on at the beginning of winter there was abnormally warm weather and the plants accelerated their vegetation, and accordingly there was a risk that if there was a sharp drop in temperature, these crops that had already grown faster than necessary would be damaged by these frosts. quickly, accordingly, everything is normal, and regarding the yield, you said that last year it was impressive, there were so-and-so plus the war, the occupation , this year we expect that we expect the harvest to be a little larger than this year, but it is worth considering that if the share is increased of oil crops, the yield of oil crops is usually lower than that of cereals. that is, it is not possible to compare the yield of grain crops and oil crops of coal crops

- it is 2 tons per hectare of cereals, 4 5 6 tons per hectare, respectively, there is no need to be afraid of the low figures of our combined impressive grain and of oilseeds let's talk about our business itself, has it become more technological , has it been possible to somehow improve agricultural technologies over the last year, and probably we will end on this, this will be our last the question is, what about the farmers, are they acting? i remember that before the full-scale invasion , some farmers there began to use drones , for example, in their fields, now all these drones are fighting. as far as i understand , there was no significant technological breakthrough. because everything is very simple hmm for the technological breakthrough of investments, they are now mostly frozen , so it is impossible to say that something has happened , on the contrary. they often used old

technology and continue to use it. that is why we do not see any significant technological changes in the agricultural sector now, mr. pavlo, i hope that after the ukrainian victory, investments will go to ukraine and we will be able to update our agricultural enterprises and attract new technologies. maybe even new crops and then our agricultural sector will improve. thank you for the conversation, thank you for being with you, pavlo martyshev, an analyst at the agricultural center of the kyiv school of economics, they talked about agribusiness last year and this year, and

about food prices, of course. we will win cinema television sports music education free people have a choice choose what you want on megogo vasyl zima's big broadcast my name is vasyl zima two hours of airtime and my colleague with you until 21:00 two hours of your time we will talk about the most important two hours to learn about the war our broadcast serhiy zhoretska military summaries of the day and what is the world like? what in the world will yury the physicist talk about for two hours to stay up to date with economic news? oleksandr borshchagivka advised him to talk about the economy during the war and new sports yevhen pastukhov i am ready to talk about sports for two hours in the company of my favorite presenters about culture during

the war . well, the events of the day in two hours , vasyl's big broadcast in the winter, a project for smart and caring people, in the evening, we continue our broadcast at 8:20 on the clock on february 1 today , from wednesday, working for you khrystyna yatskiv and yehor checherinda and we continue to collect operational information, we remind you of the most important thing, and the most important thing now is to support our military, to help them as effectively as possible to destroy the enemy on our territory, on the territory of our state , a little information on the situation in the mykolaiv region for the past day, on january 31 , the enemy launched artillery strikes infrastructure objects were damaged in the settlement of the ochakiv community , there were no victims in the city of mykolaiv

, the pervomay voznesenskyi and bashansky districts, the day and night passed relatively calmly this is information from the district military administrations and, of course, from the regional vitaliy yakima, let's talk now about the situation in the south of our country, in general, about our fronts pavlo kishkar, people's deputy of ukraine of the previous convocation, a serviceman of the armed forces of ukraine is in touch with us pavel, we congratulate the council to see and hear glory to ukraine heroes glory to each other, i can even say that i am addressing my colleagues eh how do you see each other in our studio pavla death to enemies tv channels espresso i remind for our tv viewers together with the outpost charity fund ua continues to collect funds for the purchase of powerful portable battery stations with solar panels for our soldiers, the first five stations will be transferred to the 406th separate artillery brigade named after general khorunzhy

oleksiy almazov, and we strongly urge you to help now, these are very necessary devices for our military, which really help e - the best investment in your own safety is to help our defenders of pavla well , i would definitely like to start with the situation that you see as you see it with your own eyes how are the events unfolding in the given direction, please in the south, the information is controlled and stable, the shelling of the lychakiv community that you mentioned will probably continue until the enemy withdraws from our kinburg spit, until then, the armed forces are making maximum efforts so that these shellings and life on kinburg and in general , it returned to the territory of ukraine, it is necessary

to win, to win in battles, because they are stationary on the kinburn spit. fired at, went back, not the fact that i have full information without shelling the ochakiv community. i think that in the near future this issue will be resolved, sir, in general , how is the local population suffering from what is happening from the shelling in the southern direction, how is the local government helping the local the most interesting question for the population is that this shelling does not actually

cause losses among the ukrainian military or any destruction of the military infrastructure. usually it is shelling of live infrastructure or villages or towns of ochakiv and the civilian population is suffering, the ochakivska hospital was particularly affected, and the purpose of the shelling is not clear, except for intimidation, but to intimidate even after buch irpen kremenchuk in vinnytsia and all that these hillbillies did, well, it is difficult to talk about any kind of intimidation, people are motivated people help each other, and the ochakiv community is no exception to that well, the people are united in order to cover it, i think that you, the staff, will show that the windows are sewn up as much as possible, the houses are insulated where the glass was damaged, and the people made an effort and the government made the maximum effort, the military

i think that with the onset of warm weather, the ochakiv community will return all this infrastructure to normal life, the glass will be modernized and inserted back , and one more moment, people work as a team as much as possible and everyone understands everything correctly, mr. pavlo i don't know if you are aware of this story, the scandal in the city council in the energy efficiency department of mykolaiv there , uh, they discovered the theft of equipment worth five million hryvnias, informed mykolaivska mayor oleksandr sinkevich yesterday, during the session of the city council on january 31, the new head of the department gala valentynivna lutska, her name was from law enforcement agencies , worked as the deputy head of administration of korabelny district and organized an audit there, as a result of which

the disappearance of some devices and equipment worth uah 5 million was discovered in the department they discovered the disappearance back in september, submitted the information to the erdr in december, yesterday. it was officially announced to the city council. what do you know about it ? what kind of equipment is it? well, 5 million doesn't seem like much the amount, but how big, please, i studied the question with oleksandr fedorovych, unfortunately, i could not talk to him, but if mrs. lutska worked for the law enforcement agencies, uh , this is her hmm, such a right path, and she will definitely find the answers and the right people in the law enforcement agencies in order to attract all the guilty persons should be held accountable, because during the war - it is definitely impossible neither theft nor abuse nor inflated prices at tenders. i think that the mayor

, if he spoke about it, he is interested with both hands in ensuring that such cases do not happen it happened today. you know that the danish delegation was recently in mykolaiv and talked with the leaders of the city and a whole series of issues, including those related to energy independence of the city, the provision of critical infrastructure, thanks to this meeting , it was resolved. promised that they would even open their representative office in order to have direct access to the needs of the community in such an online format and are ready to continue to help mykolaiv and the mykolaiv community so that questions

power supply to places has been decided for today everything is functioning in the city as far as i know and as far as people can get involved in the process of restoring the city's energy supply all services are working pavla please tell me according to your feelings whether the enemy is really planning something in relation to the mykolaiv region in the future towards odesa is it so unrealistic that they do not even consider it in any of their immediate plans, eh, for major events , there will be closer places in the south, eh, i am sure that this applies more to the eastern direction and events in zaporizhzhia. currently, we do not have such large-scale enemy activity, but the planned work of the armed forces and all military formations that are concentrated in the south. it is being carried out rotational work is being carried out, training of units is being carried out

. that is, we are engaged in those measures that will make any wishes impossible the russians to the next if we talk about what they are shelling the south of our country with to change in favor of the ukrainian army today, this parity is 50 to 50. and only the skill of our military allows us to save lives and disrupt the peace and work of the russian invaders. they continue to push their forces to the south of our country mainly from the temporarily occupied crimea or from the russian federation through, for example, mariupol, which is occupied there formerly the territories of donetsk and
