Research on export logistics of agricultural products in Ukraine during martial law and ensuring food security

Abstract

Ensuring food security is affected by the saturation of agricultural products produced domestically and imported. The military actions in Ukraine have negatively affected the export logistics of Ukrainian agricultural products to third countries, thus posing a threat to food security. The aim of the study is to diversify the export logistics of Ukrainian agricultural products as a result of the blockade of seaports by using the capabilities of railway and vehicle transports, cross-border cooperation between Ukraine and the European Union countries. The study is based on an assessment of the volume of exports of Ukrainian agricultural products, an analysis of the geographical structure of logistics exports, and the border crossing of Ukrainian agricultural products by different types of transport. The paper describes diversified logistics routes for exporting Ukrainian agricultural products. Based on research results, identifies promising directions of support for the export logistics of Ukrainian agricultural products during martial law and ensuring food security.
