All-Ukrainian Agrarian Association "Spade" (Ukrainian: Заступ, Zastup) is a Ukrainian political party registered on 4 May 2011.[4]
Its name is an obsolete form that means "spade".[4] Zastup is also a portmanteau standing for Za Sotsialnu Trudovu Ukrainsku Perspektyvu, meaning For Social Laborious Ukrainian Perspective.
The party's former name was "People's Initiative" (Ukrainian: Народна ініціатива).[4][5] The party is led by Vira Ulianchenko, who is a former head of Ukraine's Presidential Administration.[4][6]
It participated in the 2014 election to the Verkhovna Rada.[4][7] The party won one seat when its unaffiliated candidate Valeriy Davydenko won in the 208th single-member constituency located in Bakhmach.[8] He won with 38.86% of the vote.[8] Davydenko later joined the parliamentary faction of Petro Poroshenko Bloc.[9] Davydenko was re-elected, after again a win in the 208th constituency (with 37,43% of the vote) but this time as an independent candidate, in the 2019 Ukrainian parliamentary election.[10]
