FARMHELP Phase II: Restoring Food Security and Livelihoods in Conflict-Affected Ukraine

Russia’s ongoing invasion has devastated Ukraine’s agricultural sector, displacing families, disrupting markets and sharply reducing smallholder incomes. Total damage and losses for small agricultural enterprises are estimated at US$3.85 billion, with more than 70 percent of crop producers reporting income declines of more than 25 percent. Many farming communities remain vulnerable due to damaged infrastructure, unexploded ordnance and limited access to inputs and markets.

Building on successful, context-specific interventions from Phase I of the project, this phase supports 1,000 of the most vulnerable farming households in Hromadas of the Kharkiv region and pilots support for small and medium enterprises (SME) in Odesa Oblast. The project provides targeted agricultural input support—specifically drip irrigation systems and poultry packages—that have shown strong potential to restore household-level food security and income generation in conflict-affected areas.

This project is implemented by Corus International in partnership with the Charity Fund Agrarian Development (CFAD).
