Over the two years of the updated state support program, Ukrainian agricultural producers have purchased domestic agricultural machinery and equipment totaling over 10.5 billion UAH (including VAT), according to the press service of the Ministry of Economy, Environment, and Agriculture.
According to the ministry’s report, between April 2024 and February 2026, 8,982 enterprises took advantage of the opportunity for partial reimbursement of costs (25%). During this period, farmers purchased 14,611 units of equipment, and the total amount of funds disbursed by the state reached $2.2 billion.
“For farmers, this is a beneficial tool for modernizing their equipment fleet, and for manufacturers, it means an increase in orders. Since April 2024, the list of equipment eligible for state compensation has grown more than 14-fold. Funding for the program has already been allocated for 2026,” noted Minister of Economy, Environment, and Agriculture Oleksiy Sobolev.
The 2026 budget allocates $1.8 billion for the implementation of the state program. The first $126.1 million has already been disbursed to 382 manufacturers who submitted applications this winter. Farms in the Ternopil, Poltava, Cherkasy, Kirovohrad, and Vinnytsia regions were the most active buyers of equipment.
The official list of eligible equipment currently includes 14,425 items from 166 Ukrainian manufacturers. The ministry also noted that, starting in April 2026, the compensation rate for farmers in frontline areas has been increased to 40%.
