The official documents of the Ministry of Agriculture provide for significant changes in the deadlines for the implementation of investment projects in agriculture. Specifically, two key procedures - "Target Admission for Project Proposals for Improving Water Consumption Efficiency" and "Target Admission for Investments Ensuring Environmental Protection" - are extended until September 30, 2025.
The changes are related to sub-measure 4.1 "Investments in Agricultural Farms" and sub-measure 4.2 "Investments in Processing/Marketing of Agricultural Products". The purpose of this administrative decision is to create more favorable conditions for beneficiaries and ensure the most successful implementation of planned activities.
The program management emphasizes that the final deadline for the complete completion of the Rural Development Program remains December 31, 2025. The extension of deadlines is in line with the necessary technological time for document processing and final payments.
Experts expect this change to contribute to the successful implementation of a larger number of project proposals that meet the strict eligibility criteria. The specific documents are publicly accessible and can be reviewed by all interested parties.
The changes are part of the strategy to support the agricultural sector and will help achieve the main objectives of Measure 4 "Investments in Tangible Assets" from the Rural Development Program for the period 2014-2020.
