Journal Title: Проблеми економіки - Year 2015, Vol 2015, Issue 1

Abstract

The article deals with the relevant question of studying the interconnection of export of agricultural products of Ukraine, the EU, and countries of the world using the example of grain crops, as well as the question of evaluating the efficiency of Ukraine’s export of grain crops to the European and world markets within the context of creation of the zone of free trade with the EU. The study proves that Ukraine plays a significant role in the world grain crops market: its share in wheat export makes on average 5%; 18% in barley export; 9% in the world export of corn; simultaneously, Ukraine’s share in the volume of wheat exported to the EU makes 32%, 45% in barley export; 48% in corn export. The work studied Ukraine’s correlation relationships with the EU and countries of the world with respect to wheat, barley, and corn by crop acreage, export and import rates, which yielded high crop acreage and export values, whereas the efficiency of wheat and corn cultivation in Ukraine is somewhat lower than in the EU. The regression analysis held in this study allowed establishing the existence of a positive trend in wheat cultivation - the export level is higher that the import level, yet wheat cultivation efficiency per hectare of land is lower than the world level; the efficiency of barley cultivation per hectare of land is lower than the world level, yet positive trends are observed for the export; corn cultivation efficiency per hectare of land is sufficiently high, which suggests that this crop is quite promising in terms of realization of the export potential. It was established that the efficiency of the Ukrainian grain crops export in comparison with the EU makes on average 47% for wheat, 22% for barley, 52% for corn, that is, the EU market is the most promising for the Ukrainian grains market, but its intensification and growth prospects require that Ukraine implement certain means and mechanisms.
