As a reminder, in 2024, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and the Astarta-Kyiv agricultural holding signed a partnership agreement on the development of distance learning for Ukrainian farmers. The partnership will see the creation of 25 online courses on the cultivation, storage, and processing of field crops.
