The European Commission has approved a €218 million State aid to support agricultural producers in context of Russia's invasion of Ukraine and its negative economic impact.
The scheme was approved under the State aid Temporary Crisis Framework as compensation for the sanctions imposed against Russia and to ensure the continuity of economic activity.

The measure will be open to micro, small and medium-sized companies active in the primary production of certain agricultural products, which have been affected by the fuel, fertilizer, etc. price increase, caused by the current geopolitical crisis and the related sanctions
