ROME (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - Food production in conflict-torn eastern Ukraine is set to drop in the coming months, as farmers don't have regular access to seeds and fertilisers, a U.N. official said on Tuesday.
Some farms surrounding the battered cities of Donetsk and Luhansk lost up to 30 percent of their winter wheat harvest and planting for the spring crop has been badly hit, said Rajendra Aryal, senior emergency coordinator with the U.N.'s Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO).
