On the air of the joint telethon UA, the Minister of Agrarian Policy and Food of Ukraine Mykola Solskyi spoke about the areas in which the work of the Ministry of Agrarian Policy is focused today.
“Loan programs have been launched with the support of the Government, which in this short period of time may be somewhat limited, but in an operational format allow farmers to cover their needs for additional lending during sowing,” said the Minister. It was reported that the Government and the Ministry of Agrarian Policy are working with farmers to reduce the problems associated with logistics and grain exports during the war.
“We must pay tribute to the fact that Ukrainian farmers are boldly going to the sowing campaign, despite such difficult objective circumstances. We see it everywhere. The more confidently and devotedly the military fights, the more boldly and devotedly they go to the fields and agrarians, “Mykola Solskyi emphasized.
It was noted that the most difficult thing for farmers now is in frontline areas. First, there are very broken logistics keys; secondly, it is quite dangerous; thirdly, there must be an appropriate mood to sow in frontline or occupied areas.
Solsky said that our friendly countries help Ukrainian farmers to solve current problems. They comply with Ukraine’s requests to simplify logistics, cancel transit documents, and provide financial assistance.
The Minister is convinced that the war against our country is a war against the food security of Europe and the world.
According to Mykola Solsky, food prices have already risen over the past month. In the near future, even those countries that have never encountered such goods for decades will pay attention to prices and shortages.
“” With different levels of severity, but the issue of food security will be in many countries around the world, “- said Mykola Solsky.
