Demining of agricultural lands in Kharkivska oblast: farmers are invited to apply thought SAR
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the World Food Programme (WFP) jointly with the Ministry of Agrarian Policy and Food of Ukraine (MAPF) are launching a call in the State Agrarian Registry (SAR), for demining of agricultural lands and land rehabilitation, as SEEDS writes.
With this call, FAO and WFP, in cooperation with the MAPF, are identifying the farmers, who will be selected for the participation in the demining and land rehabilitation programme. The lands of selected farmers will receive demining support to the extent possible, along with other support needed to restart agricultural activities.
Farmers from Bohodukhivska, Chuhuivska, Iziumska, Kharkivska and Kupianska hromadas of Kharkivska oblast are invited to apply to the support. They have to own or rent agricultural plots with up to 300 ha.
Among other priority criteria are:
- high percentage of lands non cultivated as a result of the war impact;
- high percentage of bombturbated surface;
- high percentage of zones with contamination;
- reduced number of employees of the farm due to the war;
- soils classified as of national significance;
- connection of the land parcels with the drainage basin, leaching potential of the soil.
In addition, farmers have to provide the cadastral data of arable land plots considered to be unsafe. The information provided will be further confirmed by the mechanism, with the support of satellite imagery, and all the registered farmers will go through the verification process which will help FAO and WFP to build the response.
The closing date for applications is 15 August 2023.
