In reality, most of the rural population, small and medium-sized organizations are not ready for new investments because they have no own funds but only old loans. Beginning farmers also lack sufficient funds for their further development, even with the help of a selective state support represented as Novice Farmers and Family Farms grants, as well as subsidies for technical equipment. This requires new mechanisms and methods of the state support for the creation and operation of ACCs, as well as intensive involvement of non-agricultural businesses with competences in commerce, logistics, marketing and other skills not typical for agricultural producers in the agricultural cooperation system on the basis of grant support for investment projects.
