Ukraine
The overall level of producer support is modest, but disguises taxation of export-oriented sectors and considerable protection of import-competing sectors. Support has shown an upward trend in recent years. This tendency, although interrupted in 2007 due to the specific market situation, is an expected consequence of the economic recovery Ukraine saw in recent years. Robust growth in the domestic economy and external demand has lifted agricultural prices towards world market levels. Fiscal improvements resulted in more direct support provided to the sector.
