The plan for the priority return of agricultural land to economic use

The plan for the priority return of agricultural land to economic use has been updated since the beginning of 2024: now, more than 512 thousand hectares of agricultural lands are subject to clearance and demining. The plan has been revised, incorporating new lands that will be demined first. Our goal is to return over 512 thousand hectares of land to economic use," said the First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economy of Ukraine, Yulia Svyrydenko.

According to the updated plan, the priority return of lands to economic use will take place in 8 regions. Surveying, clearance, and demining are expected in the following regions:

Donetsk region: 12.8 thousand hectares
Chernihiv region: 2 thousand hectares
Sumy region: 85 hectares
Dnipropetrovsk region: 6.6 thousand hectares
Kyiv region: 9.4 thousand hectares
Kharkiv region: 190 thousand hectares
Kherson region: 248 thousand hectares.

Based on the results of last year's plan implementation, more than 200 thousand hectares of agricultural land were returned to agrarians for economic use.
