At present, disassembling is being continued at the export transshipment terminal in Mykolayiv city, where additional capacities to store 76 thousand tons of grain will be constructed. Construction works in Bilenke village of Zaporizhzhya region have been started; the river transshipment terminal must be put into operation in summer 2015. In the near future, an elevator in Khmilnyk town of Vinnytsya region will be constructed, and construction of modern facilities in Staiky village (Kyiv region) and Marivka village (Dnipropetrovsk region) is in perspective.
 “Despite unfavourable weather conditions this year, NIBULON’s agrarians have cultivated high yields”, said Deputy General Director of Agricultural Production Kostyantyn Khmelnytskyy. “330 thousand tons of grain crops have been cultivated, and corn production established a gross record of almost 162 thousand tons. Early grain crop capacity has increased by 5%. In general, NIBULON’s branches demonstrated the highest results in cultivating wheat, corn and rapeseed (the latter showed maximal crop capacity of 34 dt/ha)”.
Gross yield of late grain crops is being increased two years running. Dry weather conditions in the southern region did not even influenced the result; risk diversification on different climatic zones has traditionally helped. Speaking about the leaders, “Pryseymivs’ka” branch (Summy region) got the highest yield of corn and sunflower; “Kupyans’ka” branch (Kharkiv region) demonstrated the best sorghum yield.
Agricultural campaign completion is a conditional notion; work is being continued. Nearly 200 tons of elite seed were purchased for future yields. And this is a serious counteraction against all climatic whims and an important basis for future yields.
Head of economic analysis and planning department Yevgen Didyk informed that income figures and production branches efficiency had been increased. By yield results of 2014, winter wheat, sunflower and corn, occupying the main part of NIBULON’s sown areas, brought a profit to the company. Continued persistent work to reduce product net cost is among priorities.
Efficient work is appreciated by the company; financial stimulation system proving its efficiency for several years is functioning. Wage is increased at the branches constantly. According to Oleksiy Vadaturskyy, wage increase must be based on constant improvement of economic mechanism in the regions, labour efficiency increase, complex measures directed to expenses optimization and production efficiency increase. These are modern economy requirements.

Milk yield per head was increased by 618 liters. Livestock breeders succeeded in meat production; 986 tons of live weight were sold; consequently, product selling receipts were increased.
