From 2023, within the framework of the new federal project "Development of Vegetable and Potato Growing Industries", a new support measure is being introduced for the region's farmers - subsidies to stimulate an increase in the production of potatoes and vegetables. The funds will be provided from the federal and regional budgets.
Support is provided for agricultural producers to carry out agrotechnological work when planting potatoes and vegetables in open ground, elite seed production of potatoes and vegetable crops, the production of potatoes and vegetables in open ground and vegetables in protected ground using additional illumination technology.
Also, this type of support can be received by citizens who maintain personal subsidiary plots and apply the special tax regime "Tax on professional income" for elite seed production of potatoes and vegetables, including hybrids of vegetable crops and the production of potatoes and vegetables in open ground.
“For these purposes, 60,3 million rubles are provided, of which 44 million are federal funds. The new support measure will apply to both small businesses and large agro-industrial enterprises specializing in crop and livestock production,” said Valery Kholodov, Deputy Chairman of the Regional Government.
To participate in the selection for a subsidy, agricultural producers must submit the relevant documents to the Department of Agro-Industrial Complex and Consumer Market of the Yaroslavl Region. Information about the start date of the selection will appear on the official website of the department.
