To sell last year’s harvest, farmers in the temporarily occupied territories of Kherson region have to pay a mandatory tribute to local collaborators. The established fee is 10-15% of their earnings.
If farmers dare to sell their products without the “permission” of the overseers, they will face problems with the law, conscription into the occupation army, or the basement. Farmers have to pay the same percentage when purchasing fertilizers to grow a new crop.
Another scheme of profiteering from local farmers has been operating since the beginning of the occupation. These are intermediary firms, exclusively through which you can sell your products at fixed prices that are lower than market prices. Then the grain is transferred to structures related to the gatekeepers, who resell it at market prices and take the difference.
