For next year, 50 million euros, which amounts to UAH 2.5 billion, have been preliminarily allocated for the program to support small agricultural producers. This was reported at the VI Agricultural Policy Forum "Agro-sector 2026–2027: Survival Strategy," according to agronews.ua.
According to the Minister of Agrarian Policy and Food of Ukraine, Taras Vysotskyi, the program will be slightly modified: funds will be provided as a grant for co-financing, and the conditions will be more flexible. In particular, it may be possible to consider farms with an area of 200 hectares. The funds are already provided for in the budget, and the ratification of the relevant agreement is currently being finalized.
"That is, there is 50 million euros for next year for such support for small producers. This comes out to 2.5 billion hryvnias for us," noted Vysotskyi.
He emphasized that this amount is insufficient to save the sector. "This is not what we need to save the sector — UAH 100 billion — but for this segment it will be enough," the minister added.
