Pivdenny Bank team at 2026 Grain Ukraine Conference

Our experts participated in the country’s premier grain industry forum, held this year under the theme “The New Grain Order”.

The two-day event brought together industry leaders for in-depth discussions, valuable insights, and networking, focusing on the long-term development strategy of Ukraine’s agricultural sector.

What is driving Ukrainian agribusiness today?
The market has clearly shifted from a survival mindset to long-term planning and profound structural transformation. The key trends we identified during discussions with partners throughout the conference included:
∙ Focus on processing – a shift from exporting raw commodities to creating higher value-added products within Ukraine.∙
∙ Energy independence – strong demand for bioenergy and renewable energy projects to support agricultural enterprises.
∙ Logistics flexibility – diversification of export routes to reduce infrastructure-related risks.

Effective networking and client-focused solutions
Grain Ukraine brought together more than 500 market leaders. For the Pivdenny Bank team, the conference provided two days of intensive meetings with both existing and prospective partners, offering first-hand insights into current market sentiment and business priorities.
Our discussions with agricultural producers and exporters focused on:
∙ financing of processing and logistics projects;
∙ investing in the energy sector;∙
∙ financing of working capital in response to rising costs and longer logistics routes;∙
∙ solutions for effective liquidity management.

Ukraine’s agricultural sector is undergoing a profound structural transformation.
