As a result of the measures taken by the Volyn Regional Branch of the Antimonopoly Committee of Ukraine, demonopolization took place in the market for the supply of mineral fertilizers for agricultural producers who are provided with partial compensation for the cost of mineral fertilizers of domestic production, reports the Volyn branch of the AMCU. The authority to determine operators for the purchase and delivery of domestically produced mineral fertilizers to the region was assigned to a specially created Regional Commission under the Department of Agriculture and Food of the Regional State Administration. However, the commission recognized VAT "Volynagrokhim" as the sole operator in the region, which could have led to a violation of legislation on the protection of economic competition. Another enterprise, LLC "AgroPanKhim," twice appealed to the Regional Commission with a request to recognize it as an operator-supplier of mineral fertilizers in the region, and having received no response, appealed to the regional branch of the AMCU. As reported by the chief specialist-legal adviser of the regional branch of the Antimonopoly Committee, Oksana Lesiv, the administrative board of the branch sent a proposal to the Regional Commission to consider and adopt a reasoned decision regarding LLC "AgroPanKhim." Taking the proposal into account, the commission recognized the enterprise as an operator for the delivery of domestically produced mineral fertilizers for agricultural producers of Lutsk, Turiisk, and Lokachi districts of Volyn region. In addition, 4 more enterprises will be able to supply domestically produced mineral fertilizers to commodity producers of the region, namely VAT "Kovelagrospeetspostach" for farms of Kovel district, NKV "Zakhidagroinvest" for farms of Lutsk and Horokhiv districts, LLC "Neofit" – for Lutsk district, and VAT "Rodyuchist" for farms of Ratne district.
