The Pyadytska amalgamated hromada decided to establish Agricultural Hub on its territory. Hromada residents have supported the initiative at a general meeting today.

The project for the creation of the AgriHub training and production base in the village of Mala Kamyanka is being prepared jointly with the specialists of the Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast Hromadas Development Agency. The project is planned to be implemented within the framework of the 10th regional competition for projects and programmes of local self-government development: Component 4 “Implementation of the DOBRE Programme”. Its main purpose is to activate local economic development in the hromada. To this end, the Pyadytska AH has decided to participate as a party to co-finance this project.

“The public discussion emphasised the importance of such a hromada project, as well as the willingness of the local economically active population to participate in its implementation. Already ten citizens who came to the meeting have expressed a desire to invest a share of their own funds – and have signed appropriate protocols of intent,” the Agency said.

On the basis of the Agricultural Hub, the AH land plots will be equipped with a system of drip irrigation, which will allow to grow high-margin (high added value) crops. Participants of the meeting decided to plant Canadian blueberries on the allocated 16 hectares of land.
