Abstract
The article analyzes trends in the development of the agricultural sector in Ukraine in terms of two main components: crop production and livestock production. The income received from crop and animal husbandry was determined and the shared of the country’s total income accounted for by the leather industry was estimated. It is shown that incomes from crop production consistently exceeded incomes from livestock production. The factors that influenced this in general were determined. The impact of the war on the profitability of agricultural production is taken into account. Features of plant and animal husbandry are shown. The gross harvest of crop production by types of agricultural crops in dynamics over 30 years was analyzed. Basically, there is a positive trend of growth of this indicator. Exceptions are beets and berry crops. An analysis of the territorial distribution of income from the sale of plant products was carried out. The administrative regions of Ukraine characterized by the highest incomes from crop production have been determined. The following regions-leaders in the sale of grain crops have been identified: Chernihiv, Poltava, Sumy, Kyiv, Vinnytsia and Kharkiv regions. The cumulative share of the above-mentioned regions in the total revenue was 47%. It is shown that only 6 regions form almost 50% of the income from the sale of plant products in Ukraine, compared to other regions. Factors affecting such a distribution have been studied.
