Blueberries from Ukraine have increased their presence on European shelves and maintained a better price than last year on the Ukrainian domestic market. The chairman of the Ukrainian Horticultural Association (UHA) Taras Bashtannik spoke about it. "If we break it down by main crops, significantly more blueberries were exported this year. This is the merit of the largest Ukrainian growers and exporters.
