"Stimulating activities, implementing good practices, and associating in groups are all crucial for a thriving agricultural sector," said an AIPA representative.
The annual subsidy limit is 1.5 million lei per beneficiary, except for water user associations for irrigation, which have a 3 million lei limit. Eligible costs incurred since October 1st of the previous year and during the current application year are covered.
