DetailsIt is noted that the partnership is based on the Danish experience of the “Green Trilateral Agreement”, opens joint projects in bioeconomy, forest restoration and emission reduction, particularly in the agricultural sector, and provides support to farmers through modern technologies and new sales opportunities.
The Memorandum with Denmark translates our cooperation into a practical plane. This includes attracting investments in green recovery projects, and the development of a modern agricultural sector, as well as a step towards deeper integration of European standards in the field of climate and bioeconomy. The partnership is another step in the greening of our economy – when growth policies, investments, agricultural and environmental goals work as a single system
The Memorandum provides for:
- implementation of multifunctional agricultural practices that take into account economic and climate development goals;
- joint projects for the restoration and reconstruction of agricultural value chains and infrastructure in Ukraine;
- development of financial and tax incentives for “green” initiatives in agriculture with further allocation of payments for industry modernization;
- nature-based solutions for reducing greenhouse gas emissions;
- support for farmer-entrepreneurs through innovation, research and modern technologies.
The cooperation agreement should also increase the export of Ukrainian agricultural products to EU countries.
During the meeting, the parties also discussed the participation of Danish companies in the reconstruction of Ukraine in the areas of energy, biofuels, agricultural processing and infrastructure.
In addition, significant financial support from Denmark for the reconstruction of Mykolaiv and Mykolaiv region was emphasized. In particular, during URC2025, NEFCO and the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs signed an agreement on a contribution of DKK 338 million (about €45.5 million) to support reconstruction in the region, including projects in the field of water supply, district heating, energy efficiency and accompanying “green” solutions.
RecallThe Ministry of Economy of Ukraine and the EU Delegation discussed cooperation in the agricultural sector, focusing on assistance to frontline farmers and harmonization of legislation. Ukraine is completing screenings for three negotiation chapters, having received a high assessment from the European Commission.
