UAH 90.9 million was paid by authorised banks to farmers under the programme of partial compensation for the cost of agricultural machinery and equipment of Ukrainian production (25%). The Ministry of Economy approved the relevant orders during the three months of the state support programme.

“This government programme is very popular among farmers and Ukrainian producers and demonstrates concrete results. In just three months of the programme, agricultural producers have received payments from the state for the purchased Ukrainian-made machinery. The number of participants in the programme, both farmers and machinery manufacturers, is constantly growing, and the supply of agricultural machinery and equipment on the market is increasing, which stimulates the development of the machine-building industry, which means jobs, taxes and the country’s budget. We have allocated UAH 1 billion for the programme in 2024, so I urge agricultural producers and machinery manufacturers to join the programme, which is part of the Made in Ukraine policy,” said Andrii Teliupa, Deputy Minister of Economy.

In particular, the following amounts of compensation were paid:

• in April – over UAH 220,000 (3 farmers);
• in May – over UAH 18.6 million (93 farmers);
• in June – almost UAH 72.2 million (204 farmers).

Over the three months of the programme, 300 agricultural enterprises purchased 460 pieces of Ukrainian-made machinery and equipment worth UAH 435.5 million.

According to the data received from authorised banks, in July, almost UAH 62 million is expected to be paid to farmers as partial compensation for the purchase of Ukrainian-made agricultural machinery and equipment.
