The value of an individual grant ranges from 240,000 to 1,800,000 dinars. The projects with which you apply should be directed to the development of agriculture through pig- breeding and fruit and vegetable-growing in the primary and secondary production.

Potential applicants will be informed about the application procedure, the eligibility criteria and about how to fill in the application form at the panel discussion that will be held:

In Nis, on November 25, 2015 (beginning at 3 pm, on the premises of the Deli Center, 2 Balkanska St).
