A new form of state support for the agro-industrial complex has appeared in Russia - “Agrostartup” grants. They will help those who are going to organize a farm to take the first steps. The size of the "Agrostartup" and the conditions for obtaining - in the material Agrobook. u
A citizen of the Russian Federation who permanently lives in rural areas and intends to engage (or is already engaged in) agriculture can receive an Agrostartup grant.
An applicant for "Agrostartup" must not carry out entrepreneurial activities for the last three years as an individual entrepreneur.
An agrostartup is an opportunity to receive from the state, free of charge, up to 3 million rubles for the development of your farm, or up to 4 million rubles if the farm is a cooperative.
The money will be provided on the condition of co-financing. The farmer must decide how much money he needs to create and develop the farm: no more than 90% of this amount (excluding VAT and transport costs) will be provided by the state and at least 10% of the farmer will have to invest his own funds.
The funds are allocated on a competitive basis. The applicant for the grant will need to submit to the Ministry of Agriculture a business plan (project for the creation and development) of his farm. All business plans will be evaluated on a special scale (see below), drawn up in accordance with the priorities of the region (for example, if the priority is dairy farming, then dairy projects will receive more points than greenhouse projects). The winners of the competition will be determined by the sum of points - they will receive state support.
Terms of Service
Grant support must be used within 18 months from the date of receipt.
The Grantee is obliged to create jobs. Their number depends on the size of the grant:
The provision of grants for the development of agriculture is an effective tool for import substitution policy, which is a forced measure in response to the sanctions of Western countries against Russia. Thanks to government support, thousands of farmers were able to arrange the supply of their products to the shelves of village shops and supermarkets in large cities.

The less experienced the farmer, the more likely it is that he will be offered financial assistance. If the farm already has a significant history, it is most reasonable for him to apply for a grant for the purchase of specific equipment, construction of a production facility, or even replenishment of the animal base.
Due to the popularity and demand for this type of subsidization, many citizens have the opinion that there are supposedly many ramifications of this program, but in fact, different names mean one of the two points described below. In short, this is help to novice enthusiastic farmers, or reducing the financial burden of operating enterprises.
The beginner farmer and family livestock farm are important priorities for the state.
The focus is not only on large companies that need to purchase milk milking equipment for a third farm, but also on small producers who are starting their way in this area.
The global goal of granting grants is the development of farming in rural areas for the full provision of all regions of Russia with domestic meat and dairy products, as well as raw materials - leather, down.
Therefore, each subsidy to the farmer should lead to the emergence of a new or increase in the turnover of the existing enterprise.
Based on this, the main criteria for receiving a grant become clear:
