Through the series of meetings throughout the country the businesses will get an insight into the new rules of EU funding.

UniCredit Bulbank will organize training seminars for agricultural producers throughout the whole of Bulgaria. The aim of the project is the sector representatives in the relevant regions to get prepared for the new rules and requirements of the Common Agricultural Policy – Direct Payments and the Rural Development Programme.

The Institute for Agrostrategies and Innovation (IAI) will have a special role in the meetings with the agricultural producers throughout the country. In this way the sector will get an insight into the possibilities for funding, farm innovation, for building up a more efficient and ecological production process and better marketing of their produce.

The two main topics of the seminars, organized by UniCredit Bulbank, involve direct payments and market support as well as the main EU measures to be applied in Bulgaria in the period 2014 – 2020.
