Tatarstan farmers can receive grants in the amount of up to 4 million rubles as part of the National Project
The issues of support to farmers and the development of agricultural cooperation were considered on June 23 in the videoconferencing mode with the heads of the Agriculture and Food Departments in Tatarstan regions, chaired by the Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Food of Tatarstan Rishat Habipov.
The main issue was the national project “Creating a system to support farmers and the development of rural cooperation”.
“The national project will work in parallel with grant programs for low-income farmers, family farms and agricultural cooperatives. Those who applied for grants from the Ministry of Agriculture and Food of the Republic of Tatarstan but for some reason did not pass the competitive selection, can take part in them. In addition, the beekeepers who suffered this year from bee deaths can also apply and rebuild their apiaries. The program provides support in the direction of "beekeeping". The maximum grant amount will be 4 million rubles”, Rishat Khabipov said.
