Ukraine's Frontline Farmers Struggle Amidst Russian Attacks and Low Prices

TL;DR Summary
Farmers in Ukraine, located less than 30 km from the front line, are facing the dual challenges of Russian rocket attacks and rock-bottom prices for their harvest. With the closure of the Black Sea route for agricultural exports, farmers are struggling to find alternative ways to transport their produce, leading to a significant drop in prices. Many farmers are unable to afford repairs to their storage facilities, leaving their crops vulnerable to further damage. Despite the difficult circumstances, farmers are hesitant to sell at such low prices, opting to store their crops and wait for better market conditions.
