Over the course of his visit to the city of Smolensk, Prime Minister of the Russian Federation, Dmitry Medvedev, assigned Minister of Agriculture, Alexander Tkachev, to support construction of greenhouses in the region.
As Construction.RU was told by the regional press office, a project for construction of a greenhouse complex with an area of 17,24 hectares is being currently implemented. The project is estimated at 3 billion rubles ($52 million).
To this end, a loan in the amount of 2,6 billion rubles is required, including that for the first phase of the construction totaling 1,5 billion rubles ($26 million), and for the second phase worth 1,1 billion rubles ($19 million).
The Smolensk region’s Governor, Alexey Ostrovsky, addressed Dmitry Medvedev with the request to render assistance in including Smolensky greenhouse complex in borrowers register. This will allow the enterprise to take part the federal program of concessional lending.
