Since the beginning of 2025, 7,400 agricultural enterprises have received almost UAH 44.5 billion under various state programs, Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal said on Telegram following a government meeting on Tuesday, emphasizing that Ukrainian farmers are actively using such support instruments.

The Prime Minister stressed that subsidies for the development of livestock farming have been allocated to 7,700 farms. The state has attracted more than UAH 390 million in grant funds from the World Bank to pay the next tranche under the relevant program.

In addition, under the demining compensation program, farmers received almost 1,400 hectares of land for cultivation. In total, thanks to the work of sappers, areas with a total area of over 35,000 square kilometers have been returned to use.

“As part of the comprehensive program “Made in Ukraine,” we are paying compensation to agricultural producers who purchase Ukrainian equipment. Last year, farmers purchased 5,300 units of equipment. We expect demand to be even higher this year,” the head of government added.
