Denis Ternovsky on new government programs to support agriculture
Denis Ternovsky, expert at the Economic Policy Foundation has commented to the Nezavisimaya Gazeta daily on the situation in the Russian agricultural market, noting that the new state programs to support agriculture in terms of production of agricultural machinery and veterinary drugs, as well as the program of preferential leasing of agricultural machinery are in line with the government’s general strategy to enhance the localization of resources in the agricultural sector.
The expert has stressed that the implementation would take time and emphasized the importance of developments not only in terms of technical success, but also in terms of their commercial viability. «Even successful developments in technical terms require adequate approaches to market these products and ensure competitive prices," Denis Ternovsky believes.
