Ministry of Agriculture: already awarded tenders are not covered by the information issued on the Rural Development Program
In the past few days, the Ministry of Agriculture (AM) has informed farmers and businesses that have submitted support applications for Rural Development Program applications but have not yet received support, about what aspects they should take into account when implementing the applications as the Rural Development Program closes. The call for attention – contrary to the erroneous information published in this regard – did not apply to investments that have already received support and started, the AM announced on Wednesday.
In his announcement, the AM emphasized that there are currently several risk factors that could jeopardize the implementation of the tenders. Thus, farmers need to consider whether they can implement their application that does not yet have support even if the support decision is made later, therefore due to the approaching closure of the Rural Development Program – unlike the previous practice – the time to use the support is much shorter time will be available. The AM drew attention in advance to the fact that it will not be possible to modify the deadlines agreed in the tender, so the applicants must judge whether or not they can meet the agreed deadline for implementation, they added.
There is no way to change it further
According to the announcement, in order to facilitate the implementation of investments, the ministry’s high degree of flexibility is indicated by the fact that, in the case of nearly 4,500 investment projects, the managing authority of the Rural Development Program has agreed to modify the deadlines agreed in the tender, thereby facilitating the implementation of investments that received more than HUF 500 billion in support. Approaching the end of the program, the previous flexibility will no longer be possible. The AM emphasized that, with the adoption of the strategic plan of the Common Agricultural Policy, between 2023-2027, it will be possible again for investors to receive support for their agricultural and food industry developments, which have already been planned but are yet to be implemented, under favorable conditions that clearly ensure the successful implementation of the applications.
