Trump suspends subsidies for “green” agriculture
US President Donald Trump has announced the freezing of subsidy programs for sustainable farming launched by the previous administration. In 2024, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) received $3.1 billion to support climate adaptation in the agricultural sector, which was allocated for loans, grants, and investments in environmental infrastructure.
In addition to cutting off subsidies, Trump also froze funding for research into the breeding and production of climate-adapted crops. This decision drew criticism from sustainable agriculture advocates who had hoped for continued funding.
Further development of the grain and oilseed markets of Ukraine and the Black Sea region will be in the spotlight of the BLACK SEA GRAIN. KYIV conference, taking place on April 22–23 in Kyiv. The event will focus on strategic directions for the agricultural sector through 2030, including investments, energy independence, processing, and exports of high-value products.
Join strategic discussions and networking with industry leaders to gain актуальна insights, discover new business opportunities, and build partnerships with key market players.
