    Promoter – Financial Intermediary

    ROMANIA

    Location

    Description

    The project will support afforestation, forest rehabilitation, improved forest management, increased use of renewable energy, energy efficiency and small-scale rural and agricultural infrastructure. Specific, long-term environmentally-orientated RDP measures will be included. The operation will target selected elements of 8 Rural Development Programme measures from Axes 1, 2 and 3 plus Technical Assistance.

    Objectives

    The project will generate economic benefits in terms of employment, rural development and support to SMEs. The project will contribute to EU policy objectives in the fields of climate change, biodiversity protection and soil management. As the schemes are spread out in the country, the project will also support development in less-developed regions.

    Comments

    Romania’s current RDP, which has been developed in close co-operation with DG AGRI, is the country’s first full RDP as an EU Member State. It is a tool which lays foundations for structural modernisation and development of the country’s agriculture and forestry sectors. By supporting the government’s national contribution to these selected environmentally-orientated measures, this project will help to ensure timely implementation, directly contributing to successful long-term viability of the selected components of this important programme.
