speculative question, how much weight do you think this carries in the EU zeal to get Ukraine in as a member

A lot.

It will probably destroy all non Ukrainian farms for grain and might even do it for specialty foods because it's hard to complete with (guessing) 40% black soil verus 1% or less. They can grow for a very long time with no need for crop rotation or fertilization.

Interesting, many thanks.
