Quotes

 * We have no choice but to go and sow. In general, we are working on the following mechanism: where we can sow, where the situation allows, we go out and work. We have sown wheat, barley; we have winter crops; we are not giving up, as it is a matter of food. I want to tell you that farmers' mood is so that we will achieve territorial integrity. We are in full coordination and have a clear understanding that the country's food security depends on what we will have in fields.
 * Roman Leshchenko (2022) cited in "Minister Leshchenko: Sowing campaign to start wherever possible" on Ukrinform, 8 March 2022.
