In general, the State Budget provided 6,311 billion UAH in support of the agro-industrial complex

 

 

As of August 20, 2018

only 12% were completed (777 billion UAH)

 

 

The situation in the part of the state support of the agrarian sector is catastrophic, because in the history of Ukrainian agribusiness has not yet been such a low level of use of allocated funds. The reason for this is the redistribution of subsidies to those areas that agrarians are not in demand, and, conversely, the refusal to finance the necessary directions and programs. In addition, there are various administrative obstacles to obtaining funds from farmers.

In fact, the government's proposed draft budget for 2019 suggests repeating the situation this year, as already mentioned above does not change anything.
