Patrushev focused on preparations for the 2025 sowing campaign. According to him, about 20 million hectares have already been sownwinter crops . Also, at the beginning of 2025, more than 28 billion rubles will be allocated to subsidize new loans for sowing. In 2025, the preferential lending mechanism will become a higher priority for dairy farming, where the interest rate will be reduced.
Recall that preferential investment lending in pig farming was suspended in 2019 to prevent market oversaturation. As a result of the discussion, Patrushev instructed the Ministry of Agriculture to promptly approve the structure of sown areas and create a plan for the use of domestic seeds. Issues of lending to the agricultural industry and pricing of key resources will also remain under control.
