"The payment of subsidies is beneficial for owners who receive financial assistance and benefits, as well as the state, as number of meat and milk is increasing. Thus, we can reduce the import of meat and dairy products in our country" - said the head of the department.

Mykola Prysyazhnyuk reminded that a special budget subsidy is paid for the content of young cattle aged 3 to 15 months. The payment of the subsidies began June 1.
