Bread prices will rise by 25%: what else will become more expensive this autumn in Ukraine.

According to Denis Marchuk, Deputy Head of the All-Ukrainian Agricultural Council, prices for key products in Ukraine will start to rise in autumn. An increase in the prices of bread and dairy products is expected.

Price forecasts for bread and dairy products

According to inkorr.com: Although the wheat harvest in 2025 is expected to be stable, it is forecasted that bread prices will increase significantly. By the end of the year, the cost may rise by 20-25%.

• Food inflation
• Increase in gas and electricity prices
• Wage increases at bakeries
• Cost of imported components
• Logistics costs

In the first nine months of 2025, prices for bread rose by 1.5-2% each month, except for April.

The situation in the market for other products

Prices for cereals, particularly buckwheat, will remain stable over the next few months, with changes possible no earlier than winter due to the energy situation.

The cost of beef and pork remains high, as does poultry meat. However, the cost of production may increase if there are problems with electricity supply.

After the end of the 'big milk season' and active exports, prices for dairy products may rise by 7-8% from September to November.

Egg prices may increase by 5-10% depending on the cost of electricity.

Vegetable prices and storage issues

This season, vegetable prices, thanks to a good harvest of potatoes, carrots, beets, and cabbage, may decrease by 30-40%. However, an increase in prices is expected in winter due to storage costs.

In Ukraine, there is a problem with a lack of vegetable storage facilities, prompting the need to import significant volumes of vegetables. Solving this problem through financing agrarians can reduce dependence on imports.

According to experts' forecasts, prices for bread, dairy products, meat, eggs, and vegetables will continue to fluctuate until the end of the year depending on several factors, including the increase in the cost of electricity and imported components, as well as harvest conditions. Problems with vegetable storage facilities may lead to a decrease in dependence on imports, which in turn will support domestic production and stabilize prices in the market.
