It is imperative to provide Ukraine with not only military and financial resources to liberate its territory and quell the 21st-century horror unleashed by Russia but also with the capacity to implement policies that bolster agricultural producers during the conflict and foster sectoral recovery post-victory. This capacity hinges, among other factors, on the ability to formulate policy decisions rooted in accurate data and evidence. The higher the precision and comprehensiveness of the data, particularly when aggregated nationally and disaggregated at the farm level, encompassing information across the supply chain and indicators of both domestic and international trade, and if collected in a consistent and systematic manner, the easier it becomes to analyze intricate policy proposals.

Deoccupied and occupied territories, as well as regions significantly affected by military actions, necessitate specialized assistance. Statistical data collection services, data, and the entire system must be tailored to gather information effectively from these regions to provide efficient aid.

Moreover, it is crucial to consider aligning Ukraine’s agricultural statistics with the standards of the European Union (EU), especially in anticipation of upcoming accession negotiations. Harmonizing these statistics with EU standards not only enhances Ukraine’s ability to navigate negotiations smoothly but also facilitates integration into EU markets and regulatory frameworks, fostering economic growth and stability.

The aim of this project is to devise recommendations for enhancing agricultural statistics and data collection methods from the most affected regions, while also preparing Ukraine for its potential accession to the EU by aligning with EU standards.
