Eastern Ukraine was fertile agricultural land, likely why it's the subject of takeover (in addition to mineral mining). Wonder how much of it will be reusable as such, and how much of it will be used but will be basically toxic output.

Maybe someone knows the answer.

But is there something unique about munitions used in Afghanistan or Ukraine vs those used in WW1/2 or Vietnam or Korean wars that are particularly more toxic or have increased duration of toxicity that would make crops unusable? I would have suspected the munitions to be similar enough to see the same effects.

I’m guessing depleted uranium would be a major differentiator from those old munitions.

And while the GP said toxic, I have to imagine leftover bomblets from cluster munitions are going to have serious effects on working the land as well.
