More than 2 million UAH of return assistance was allocated by the deputies of the Chernivtsi Regional Council to the farm in the village of Dovzhok, Novoselytskyi district.

The farmer did not have insurance, the district also refused to help the farm, so the farmer turned to the deputies of the regional council for help. This money is planned to spend on the purchase of young animals. The amount will not cover all losses, but it will help the economy to survive.

To the deputies' remark that the regional council is not an insurance company and can not help everyone, the chairman of the Chernivtsi Regional State Administration Oleksandr Fyshchuk replied that the farmer then did everything that was required of him: he burned the pigs and prevented the spread of the disease.

If now the deputies do not come to terms with him, then all the other farmers will not comply with the requirements of veterinarians.

After a long discussion, the regional elected representatives agreed to allocate more than 2 million UAH for two years of return assistance to the farmer.
