Summary/Abstract: The article concerns the role of Ukraine as a key exporter on the world market of agricultural products and the impact of the armed conflict between Ukraine and Russia on the state of global food security. The natural, climatic, technological and raw material potential of Ukraine was analyzed. Ukraine’s share in the world exports of key agricultural products such as wheat, barley, sunflower oil, rapeseed and sunflower meal was determined. The conducted analysis allowed for the formulation of important conclusions, including the indication that as a result of hostilities on the territory of Ukraine, agricultural production is expected to be reduced by up to 30% and a significant deterioration in the efficiency of logistic export channels, which means a negative impact on the food security of many countries, especially Asia and North Africa. Alternative exporting countries, important for the global food security, such as rape, wheat, barley and corn, have been identified.
