The Government's goal is to ensure the economy's self-sufficiency and increase domestic resources that finance the army. To this end, the State promotes priority industries, including the agricultural sector. This was stated by Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal.

During a session on March 12, the Cabinet of Ministers improved the mechanism of the eRobota program.

"The State covers 70% of the project cost, the rest (30%) is financed by an entrepreneur. Provided that a sufficient number of jobs are created and other conditions are met, the money will not need to be returned. Authorized banks will then monitor the targeted use of the funds. All this will allow farmers to more effectively and rationally use the support provided by the State," emphasized Denys Shmyhal.

The Prime Minister noted that agricultural producers were generating a significant share of Ukrainian exports. In 2023, it will be more than 60% of all goods. Thanks to the sea corridor, more than a thousand ships have already transported about 30 million tonnes of cargo from Black Sea ports to almost 40 countries. These are mainly agricultural exports.

"The State, in turn, continues to help Ukrainian farmers at all levels. Since the beginning of this year, banks have issued almost UAH 20 billion in loans to agricultural enterprises, including UAH 6.3 billion under the "5-7-9" program," the Head of Government said.

According to the Prime Minister, UAH 723 million has been invested in horticulture and greenhouse farming under the eRobota program over the past year and a half.
