The Accounting Chamber conducted an audit of the execution of the federal budget for 2024 and found a number of violations in the activities of the Ministry of Agriculture. Despite the significant over-fulfillment of income and a high degree of expenditure utilization, deficiencies in the management of budgetary funds were identified.
In 2024, the Ministry of Agriculture of Russia administered 60 types of federal budget revenues, the total amount of which amounted to 14.8 billion rubles, which is 3.6 times higher than the planned forecast of 4.1 billion rubles. The main sources of income were the return of the remaining subsidies, amounting to 3.6 billion rubles, and gratuitous receipts from non-governmental organizations - 10.5 billion rubles. Compared to 2023, receipts have almost doubled. As for expenses, the total budget of the Ministry of Agriculture amounted to 671.5 billion rubles, of which 99.9% were disbursed on time. The outstanding allocations amounted to only 844.7 million rubles, which is 1.7 times less than in the previous year. However, the largest amounts of non-fulfillment fell on subsidies for rural development and capital investments. The audit also revealed 10 violations totaling 468.5 million rubles. Among them, there is an overestimation of subsidies for government assignments due to incorrect calculation of regulatory costs and late approval of government assignments for a number of institutions. In addition, there were no approved standards for the allocation of subsidies for 46 budget institutions.
