"The initiator of the new business in the village of Slidy was Mykola Budnyak. He has devoted his entire life to agriculture and worked as an agronomist for many years, so he dreamed of starting his own business.
Mr. Mykola not only wrote the project, but also added his own funds to the grant, which allowed him to build a powerful, high-quality, and well-insulated greenhouse. The man received 100 thousand hryvnias for his own business, added 50 thousand of his own, and started a business - he set up greenhouses and started growing seedlings, mainly watermelons, peppers, and tomatoes," Bilozir writes.
The MP noted that the greenhouse makes it possible not only to provide residents with quality products, but also to create new jobs.
