“The government of the region provides significant support to farmers for field work. The region has a system of concessional lending for harvesting at a rate of up to 5% per annum. Up to 50% of the costs incurred for the purchase of equipment and seeds are compensated. The Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation introduced the Federal State Information System for the traceability of grain and grain processing products FSIS “Zerno”, for the implementation of which the Yaroslavl region was allocated more than 8 million rubles. In addition, the implementation of the program for the purchase of fuel by Yaroslavl farmers on preferential terms at a discount of up to 10% through a single operator, JSC YaroslavlAgropromtekhsnab, under an agreement with PJSC Gazpromneft, continues. We invite all manufacturers to join this system”,
Thus, the agrarians of the region are successfully approaching the completion of harvesting.
