Ukrainians Will Receive Up to UAH 7,000 for Animal Maintenance — Who Can Apply in 2025

09.02.2025

Starting February 3, 2025, farmers in Ukraine will be able to apply for government support through the online service “State Agrarian Register” (DAR). This financial assistance will only be provided to farms that did not receive similar support in 2024.

According to the Vinnytsia Regional Military Administration, the payments are intended to help cover the costs of animal care and to stimulate the development of livestock farming, particularly in small and medium-sized farms.

Who is eligible:

  • Cows: UAH 7,000 per cow, if the farmer keeps between 3 and 100 heads (regardless of whether for dairy or meat production).
  • Goats or Sheep: UAH 2,000 per animal, provided that the breeding herd has between 5 and 500 heads.

Application Conditions:

  1. The number of animals must meet the established limits: 3–100 cows, or 5–500 goats/sheep.
  2. The farmer must not have received a similar subsidy in 2024; otherwise, the program will not be available.
  3. Registration in the DAR is mandatory — applications are submitted through this online platform.
  4. Appropriate documents confirming the number and status of the animals must be provided.

The funds will be transferred one-time to the recipient’s bank account.
Support is available to farmers from all regions of Ukraine, except for temporarily occupied territories and active combat zones.
