Ukrainian lawmakers have allowed the sale of agricultural land to foreign investors without restrictions, now foreign companies and individuals can become owners of a significant part of arable land in the country, writes TK. It is already known that three companies have purchased 17 million hectares of Ukrainian land — more than half of all farmland in the country (42.7 million hectares).
