Abstract

The conflict between Russia and Ukraine has had extensive repercussions extending beyond its immediate political and humanitarian implications. Agriculture has emerged as a crucial sector significantly affected by this war, with ongoing hostilities disrupting farming practices, displacing populations, and causing substantial harm to agricultural infrastructure and assets. Resolving the agricultural crisis in the conflict affected regions necessitates a comprehensive approach encompassing urgent humanitarian aid, the restoration of infrastructure, and assistance in rebuilding livelihoods. In the long run, efforts should concentrate on reconstructing agricultural systems, advocating sustainable practices, and revitalizing local economies. These measures are crucial for fostering resilience and ensuring food security within the affected communities. This paper aims to offer a succinct summary of the agricultural situation in the areas impacted by the Russia-Ukraine war.
