The call for projects under Measure 6.1 "Start-up aid for young farmers" of the Rural Development Programme will open on 29 June and will continue until 24 July 2015. This is clear from the order by Minister Desislava Taneva to open the call for applications under the measure.

"The indicative budget is 35 million euros, which is about half of the measure's resources. Furthermore, beneficiaries will be able to use the services of the National Agricultural Advisory Service free of charge when preparing their business plans for projects in the fields of crop production, livestock production, and agricultural economics," stated Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Food Vasil Grudev.

For the first time, applicants under sub-measure 6.1 will have the opportunity to submit their documents electronically. They must complete and submit an application for granting rights to access and use an electronic module to a regional directorate of the State Fund "Agriculture" of their choice.
