The USAID AGRO program provides 50% co-financing for agricultural processing development projects.

The USAID AGRO program offers co-financing for 15 projects aimed at developing the processing of agricultural products in Ukraine. It is expected that the financed projects will improve the processing of agricultural products, contribute to import substitution, satisfy domestic demand, and increase exports.

They provide for the creation of modern hubs, the infrastructure of industrial parks, and the development of the market for frozen, dried, canned, and ready-to-eat products. This will attract investment in infrastructure (refrigeration chambers, storage equipment) and create additional jobs.

The projects will focus on restoring and strengthening processing capacity to produce value-added products from vegetables, root crops, fruits, berries, legumes, corn, greens, meat (except chicken), milk, and honey.

Program participants must be ready to co-invest at least 50% of the total project budget.
