In addition to panel discussions, participants from the first hand will know about main legislative initiatives and actions to facilitate the work on the grain market, and also about  changes of the investment climate of the country.

“Traditionally, Grain Ukraine has the status of the most atmospheric agricultural party of the year. Recently, we have seen really vigorous and useful debates on its stage, that continue informally after. Grain titans meet here to discuss the future,” said Iryna Bondarenko, Chair of the Grain Ukraine organizing committee.

The organizers expect more than 400 participants. To increase the level of health protection, the event will be held outdoors in Buddha Beach.

On June 4, the participants will have a party ‘Burning Year at Grain Ukraine’, and on June 5 — a same name relax program in the club Park Residence. Legendary Odessa vacation with music, communications, the sea: everything to relax with colleagues and friends before the busy agricultural season.
