Ukrainian farmer Ivan (49) has been farming for almost 24 years. The area of his farm is more than 1,000 hectares now, of which about 300 hectares cannot be cultivated due to intense shelling. Tractor drivers and harvesters sometimes work under shelling because the fields are 10-12 km from the frontline, the farmer said. His farm rows winter wheat, winter rape, sunflower and corn. Russian troops entered Ukrainian territory on 24 February 2022, starting a conflict that has provoked destruction and a humanitarian crisis. EPA/KATERYNA KLOCHKO 49466
