On the 13th of July there was a webinar to explain the mechanism of grants for greenhouses development.

This concerns the application of the Cabinet of Ministers of 21.06.2022 № 738 "Some issues of grants for businesses" to create or develop greenhouses, as well as the order of the Ministry of Agrarian Policy of Ukraine of 06.07.2022 № 428 "On approval of the standard project of modular greenhouses".

The webinar was organized by the specialized department of the Ministry of Agrarian Policy in partnership with the All-Ukrainian Association of Communities with the involvement of interested parties.

"We are currently working with limited resources, but we are doing everything to achieve several goals: creation of jobs in the agricultural sector and rural areas, development of our economy and relocation of businesses from the temporarily occupied territories. Of course, we are working to create added value and import substitution, to increase exports of domestic products. Now more than ever, we have unimpeded access to world markets, we have funding from the state, we have knowledge of our entrepreneurs and farmers - all this forms one successful puzzle and will give synergistic effect", - noted during the webinar First Deputy Minister of Agrarian Policy and Food of Ukraine Taras Vysotskiy.

During the event, participants were informed about the conditions and mechanism of the grant:
