What Ucab does

UCAB (Ukrainian Club of Agrarian Business / Асоціація «Український клуб аграрного бізнесу») is a nonprofit industry association founded in 2007 and headquartered at Maidan Nezalezhnosti, 2, 5th floor, Kyiv, Ukraine. It unites 200+ leading Ukrainian agro-industrial companies — including major holdings such as MHP, IMC, Cygnet, Continental Farmers Group, and Agro-Region — providing a coordinated advocacy voice for the sector with the Ukrainian government, parliament, and international bodies including the European Commission, USDA, and World Bank.

The association operates a portfolio of service platforms: UCAB Survey delivers regular analytical monitoring of Ukrainian agricultural exports, production forecasts, and food price trends; UCABevent manages agricultural conferences, AgTech Days field demonstrations, and roundtables with government officials; the UCAB EU Office in Brussels handles European integration, EU trade negotiations, and participation in the Ukraine Recovery Conference; AgrokebetyPRO provides free mentorship, employment placement, entrepreneurship support, and online courses for agricultural students and young professionals, implemented with USAID funding; and UCAB Solutions, launched in 2026, serves as a communication platform for agritech development in Ukraine.

UCAB is funded primarily through membership dues from its 200+ member companies, supplemented by donor grants (e.g., USAID for AgrokebetyPRO) and event-related revenue. Pricing for membership is not publicly disclosed, while AgrokebetyPRO is free for participants with prior registration. The association is governed by a presidency (currently Alex Lissitsa, who also chairs IMC's board), a general directorate (currently Oleg Khomenko, appointed September 2023), and a network of expert committee coordinators covering analytics, European integration, technical/equipment, land, plant protection and seeds, and agrochemical domains.
