Market development trends of crop produce in Ukraine, which provides both food safety and food produce export of the country, were analyzed in this paper. High profitability of the cultivation of corn, sunflower, soybean and rape encourages producers to increase their sown areas. There is a tendency of increasing crop produce. It has been defined that raw crop produce is the major item of Ukrainian export. Thus, the latter depends on the fluctuations of market conditions very much. The polynomial model, which describes the level of grain and leguminous crops productivity in Ukraine for the period from 1913 to 2012 and envisages further yield increase of these crops was developed. The ways of enhancing the adaptability of crop production under current conditions were identified.
