Experts emphasized that the development of Ukrainian agriculture should be based on synergy, and the accession process will require long-term negotiations and transitional periods. Differences in export structures were also discussed—Ukraine focuses on agricultural raw materials like grains and oils, while Polish exports are more diversified. The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) will need to be reformed to support the agricultural sectors of both countries in a sustainable way, considering new challenges and promoting environmentally friendly practices.
