Kaliningrad agrarians are updating the fleet of agricultural machinery with state support

On behalf of the governor, in 2021, 156.7 million rubles were allocated to compensate for part of the costs of modernizing and re-equipping the agricultural equipment fleet, which allowed farms to purchase 32 combines, 34 tractors and 88 units of various agricultural equipment (loaders, plows, seeders, mowers, etc.). ).

“This has significantly helped to replenish the fleet of combines and tractors, which will contribute to field work in optimal agrotechnical terms,” said Natalia Shevtsova, Deputy Chairman of the Government of the Region, Minister of Agriculture. - In order to further replenish the machine and tractor fleet, this type of support is maintained. In 2022, budget allocations in the amount of 100 million rubles are provided for the reimbursement of part of the costs for the purchase of agricultural machinery, machinery and equipment.”

Currently, the Ministry of Agriculture of the region is collecting information on the plans of agricultural producers to purchase machinery and equipment.
Technical modernization of the agro-industrial complex is one of the factors for the successful development of the industry. Earlier, the governor set the task of increasing production and expanding exports of agricultural products. Thanks to state support for the expansion of the combine fleet in 2021, the average load per combine decreased and amounted to 596 hectares against 624 hectares.
