🚜🪖The Cabinet itself doubled the farmers' reservation threshold — now the Ministry of Agrarian Policy is preparing to roll it back
🌾📈 At the end of 2025 the government tightened the criticality criteria for agribusiness: the land threshold was raised from 500 to 1000 hectares, and the revenue threshold from 20 to 40 million UAH. The consequence was felt by smaller farms: in Kirovohrad region alone, only 248 out of 3009 agricultural enterprises met the land criterion.
🏛🔄 Now the Ministry of Agrarian Policy is preparing a reversal. Minister Taras Vysotsky said that in the fall they want to lower the threshold “by orders of magnitude” — to a few hundred hectares. Currently more than 6 thousand critical agricultural enterprises cultivate over 80% of agricultural land, and the ministry wants to bring coverage to 95%. In effect, the state is beginning to correct a restriction that it itself significantly tightened less than a year ago — and which immediately created an advantage for medium and large agribusiness.
