Amounts and percentages of support
The first installment is paid after the issuance of the integration decision with the submission of a relevant application by the beneficiary. The remaining four (4) installments are paid one each year for the next four (4) years and upon completion of the calendar year from the recognition of the team / organization by the competent body with the submission of a relevant application by the beneficiary.
In case the producer group / producer organization has been recognized in a year prior to the application for support then after the issuance of the accession decision it can submit a payment application for the number of operating years that have been completed on the date of its submission.
The calculation of the production value for the payment installment if the producer group or producer organization has not completed a calendar year of operation from its recognition, is based on the average annual value of the members' marketed production during three (3 ) years before the recognition of the group or organization.
In the event that the producer group or producer organization has completed a calendar year of operation from its recognition the calculation of the production value is derived from the average annual value of the commercial production of the producer group or producer organization. The average annual value is derived from the corresponding tax data (invoices).
For the following years the production value is included as an estimate in the business plan and is verified by the respective documents (invoices). The certification of the value of traded production results in all the above cases from a chartered accountant registered in the register of Auditors of ELTE, for the product or products that the group / organization has recognized, for each calendar year from their recognition.
The amount of support is paid per year as follows:
10% of the production value that has been placed on the market during the 1st year after recognition (according to the second paragraph of par. 3 of article 27 of Reg.1305 / 2013)
8% of the marketed production value in the 2nd year after recognition
6% of the production value that has been marketed in the 3rd year after recognition
4% of the marketed production value in the 4th year after recognition
2% of the marketed production value in the 5th year after recognition
The integration budget is calculated as the sum of the estimated annual payment amounts, as shown in the relevant table of the business plan and can not be increased.
The annual support of each beneficiary can not exceed € 100,000 .
