Supply-chain Risk Briefing

1. Summary

On March 14, 2025, Russian forces shelled Tokaryivka in Ukraine's Kherson region, with casualty figures remaining unconfirmed. The Kherson region is a key agricultural hub in southern Ukraine, and sustained military attacks could have medium- to long-term impacts on agricultural production and logistics.

2. Supply-chain impact

• Agricultural production disruption: Kherson region is a major grain-producing area in Ukraine, with continued shelling expected to negatively impact planting and harvesting operations and agricultural infrastructure
• Inland logistics constraints: The Kherson region is strategically located along the lower Dnieper River, serving as a key hub for inland waterway and road logistics, but security concerns may reduce logistics activities
• Food processing facilities: Grain storage facilities, food processing plants and other facilities in the region are exposed to attack risks, increasing operational shutdown risks
• Energy infrastructure: If agricultural power supplies and fuel storage facilities become targets, disruptions to mechanized farming operations are expected

3. Watch points

• Expansion of agricultural facility damage: Need to track whether agricultural infrastructure near Tokaryivka, including grain storage facilities and farm equipment depots, are hit and assess damage scale
• Overall security situation in Kherson region: Monitoring required for changes in Russian military attack patterns in the Kherson region and whether frequency of strikes on civilian infrastructure is increasing
