The relevance of the project is determined, on the one hand, by the key issue of food security, which always occupies a leading position in the overall national security of each country, as it is a prerequisite for the social and economic stability of the state. On the other hand, the need to restore agriculture in view of the consequences of the full-scale war in Ukraine, to help cope with the consequences of destruction and loss of business, to adapt to the new realities of today, to support and prioritise small farming, to attract investment in the newest sectors of the rural economy. This will serve as a prerequisite for the restoration of agricultural areas, the return and employment of the population.
