KYIV, Feb 7 – The Cabinet of Ministers approved UAH 1 billion in compensation of 25% of the cost of Ukrainian-made agricultural machinery to farmers, Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman said.

"We are continuing the program to support the production of domestic agricultural machinery in the country. This year we are sending UAH 1 billion for these purposes. In fact, we will compensate 25% of the cost of agricultural machinery produced by Ukrainian hands, produced in the country. We will compensate 25% of [the cost of] the equipment for those who buy it. In fact, we expect an increase in the production of Ukrainian agricultural machinery, which is quite competitive," he said at a government meeting on Wednesday.
