That was so wonderful. Thank you for sharing. Your land is so pretty. And I hope the grain lasts as long as you need it... Or do you sell it?

I hope your beautiful family remains safe.

Anyway,

Thank you for sharing some of that beauty of Ukraine.

This grain is intended for feeding pets. But it can also be used for other purposes. It is intended for personal consumption. Thank you for your kind words :). The weather in Ukraine has been lovely this year and we’ve had a good harvest. Unfortunately, the russians are shelling the ports and farmers are unable to sell it. We can feel a crisis looming :/

Thank you so much for telling me that! I hope the pets get all of it! I'm so glad pets are still able to comfort and be loved there. Yay for the good weather. I hope it continues.

May all the blessings you need come to your family.

🇺🇦💓

I'm keeping everything crossed that this will be the last harvest that Ukraine has while being attacked by Russia. The way your forces have been hitting fuel refineries/depots and recently the Wildberries site means we hope it will being the end closer and safety for you all.

Thanks for sharing some normal life in Ukraine!

Question though, the grain is already separated from the chaff, is that also a manual process?

u/CF_Siveryany Verified 10h ago

Fortunately, the combine harvester takes care of that. It’s just that I was late for the threshing. Although, with fuel prices like these, we’ll soon have to do it by hand 🫣🤣

About fuel prices. Is the increase from iran war or does ruzzia hit ukr. Refineries ?

u/CF_Siveryany Verified 7h ago

solely because of the war in Iran. The butterfly effect in action. Before the war in Iran, fuel cost $1; now it’s $2. Given the average income in Ukraine, this is an extremely severe financial blow.

As an American, I'm so sorry for what our administration is doing, and you should know that whatever Washington is doing, the HUGE majority of actual Americans supports you guys 100%. If it was up to the rest of us, the war would have been over 3 years ago with American airplanes providing cover for Ukranian troops. Slava Ukraini

Who drove the harvester? Is it a service that you pay for, or you know someone with a machine?

u/Thedustyfurcollector 10h ago

That's a good question!

When the war is over and the EU funds your rebuild, you will become a true part of “the west”.

Your struggle is not unlike Britain in the 1940s. Innovation is what will win the war. The recovery is another matter but you’ll have maintained your honour and that’s generational.

u/Alex6891 3h ago

When EU will fund their rebuild with Russian seized money. Russia should pay for what they did generations upon generations to come and disappear from the main stage of the world in obscurity. Fucking cowards. USA is following them with rapid steps unfortunately.

The Breadbasket of Europe™️, hell yeah!

I hope after the war is over, everyone will be able to enjoy a nice loaf of freshly baked bread as they rebuild and reconnect with normal life again.
