She said that power outages can really affect food prices, especially if there are long blackouts. According to him, logistics, storage and processing of agricultural products directly depend on stable electricity supply.

Therefore, even with possible local interruptions, the system is generally ready to withstand the autumn-winter season without a sharp jump in prices. It will be recalled that the State Statistics Service reported that over the past year, Ukrainians have experienced a noticeable increase in the price of food products, especially those that form the basis of the daily diet. Before that, it was reported that summer deflation was recorded in the country — for the first time after a one-year break.
