Between January and July of 2022, Ukraine experienced a 6.5% decrease in imports of lard, pork fat, and poultry fat compared to the same period in 2021, totaling 15.9 thousand tons. Despite the decrease in volume, the monetary value of these imports rose by 47.6% to $18.3 million, largely due to increased prices. The majority of these imports were sourced from the Netherlands, Poland, and Sweden, and Ukraine saw minimal exports of these fats during the first seven months of 2022. Additionally, the average consumer price of lard in Ukraine increased to UAH 124.58/kg in July.
