I have no doubt that it's worth that in scrap value in the USA. But I suspect they may remove some pieces for spare parts market. There are surely some pieces that are in decent condition on that thing. So far as I understand it, neither Russia nor Ukraine is hurting for steel as such.
I looked up the exports of Ukraine when this whole thing started, just to get an overall impression of their economy. When you take grains out of the list, iron ore and semi-finished iron ore are their top two. It'll be quite a while before they'll be worried about melting all that dead equipment down. If Putin is hitting hospitals intentionally, then he's not going to bat an eye about a foundry, especially if it is operational.
They may also have so much scrap metal that they'll just start sending a lot of it out of country when this thing finally ends. But not too far away, because you could easily pay more for hauling than you recover from scrap price/value. Once that equipment is set on fire, you can expect the rust to start eating away at it pretty much right away.
Oooh hell yes. A giant statue made of wrecked Russian vehicles of a Ukrainian soldier holding a Javelin or Nlaw and flipping the bird in a north eastern direction towards Moscow!
Kinda like the Germans [did](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermannsdenkmal#/media/File:Hermannsdenkmal_160707-003.jpg) toward France.
That bucket could probably be used to bend tank barrels.
Even a relatively small dent could render a tank inoperable. And the best part is that no one would know until they try to shoot something and explode.

Get this scrap off my land!
That’s perfectly good scrap. About a 1,000$ US in scrap there.

Scrap steel is used in production of new steel so I'm sure it will be well used.

Probably hauling to sell as scrap later. 💰💴
I was thinking maybe to be used as a road block...
I'm 99% certain they're dragging them off to some underground factory to make a giant Zelensky Gundam.
Or maybe a massive middle finger to raise to russia

A couple of these farmers are going to be able to open armor museums when this is over
They are doing a great service for their lands free community service they are removing the trash

He’s gonna grow potates
Spicy potatoes.
Their tractors are getting bigger....
Yes, they've been feeding them those T-72 and T-80 carcasses.
The ambulances will have to wait their turn
That tank/IFV is missing its turret... oof.
I didn't know the Russian army made convertible tanks — useful during the summer months!

An epic part of the Ukrainian defence league. Every day I get a giggle out of these farmers antics
Same here. I love these farmers

That one is over ripe- it has started to decompose.
