Image Caption: This cloudy view of the southern Ukraine offers a view of the Dneper River and Kakhovskoye Reservoir, Ukraine, CIS (48.0N, 36.0E). Extensive and intensive agriculture can be seen throughout this region, long regarded as the breadbasket of the CIS, the Ukraine is one of the most agriculturely productive regions in the world. Intensive agriculture requires extensive water resources so reservoirs have been built along the region's many rivers.
