Note that unrelated support (per hectare) is paid per hectare of arable land. Agricultural producers manage subsidies at their discretion: they purchase fuel and lubricants and mineral fertilizers, chemical plant protection products and seeds.
We will remind that earlier the vice-governor of Primorye Denis Bochkarev emphasized that in 2017 funding for agricultural support programs was maintained at the level of last year.
“This year, all support measures identified in the state program remain. 1,5 billion rubles were allocated from the regional budget for the development of agriculture in Primorye, and 1,7 billion from the federal budget. This year, federal funding for soft loans to agricultural producers has been increased to 400 million rubles, ”said Denis Bochkarev.
Governor Vladimir Miklushevsky emphasized that Russian President Vladimir Putin has set a large-scale task for the regions under the conditions of sanctions to saturate the domestic market with high-quality and affordable products, as well as enter the world. And in Primorye there are already visible results.
“Over the past five years, gross agricultural production in Primorye has increased by 14%. The land today already almost completely meets the needs for potatoes and vegetables, ”the Governor stated.
Note in his annual Address to the Federal Assembly, President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin said that the country has created a flexible system of support for agricultural producers, and today the agricultural sector is a successful industry that feeds the country and conquers international markets.
The head of state emphasized that much depends on the regions in the development of agriculture.
“I believe that it is necessary to give them more independence in determining the priorities for using federal subsidies to support the agro-industrial complex, and to connect their volume with increasing arable land, increasing yields, and other qualitative indicators of production efficiency, thereby creating an incentive for putting idle agricultural land into circulation and introducing advanced agricultural technologies, ”Vladimir Putin is sure.
