State support for the agro-industrial complex for 2022

The Ministry of Agrarian Policy has developed a preliminary plan for the directions of state support for the agricultural sector for 2022. Since Verkhovna Rada will soon start considering the budget for the next year, the Ministry of Politics has prepared a program of budgetary assistance for the agro-industrial complex.

The concept was presented with a list of the main directions. In general, it is proposed to allocate UAH 8 billion for the development of the agro-industrial complex in 2022, of which UAH 4.6 billion is provided for supporting farmers, which is 100 million more than was allocated in 2021. However, the final amount of state support will be known exactly after voting for the budget for 2022.
