The Cabinet of Ministers has increased the amount of compensation for the cost of demining agricultural land to 100%. UNN reports with reference to the Ministry of Economy of Ukraine.
Details
We fully cover the cost of humanitarian demining of agricultural land for those agricultural producers who are only planning to clear their land... The state will pay for such services so that farmers who participate in the program will be able to sow and harvest crops on the cleared areas next season
The resolution comes into force on the day of its publication. The Center for Humanitarian Demining is to announce the first tenders for humanitarian demining services in the Prozorro system in the near future.
