Applications for the National Investment Scheme 2025 for the agricultural sector open today, offering an integrated financing package that includes soft loans and financial support through grants, the Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Anila Denaj, announced on her social networks.

According to Denaj, this scheme aims to increase competitiveness and strengthen innovation in the agri-food chain, while also ensuring compliance with EU standards for food safety.

"Furthermore, it aims to achieve the government's ambitious goal of exporting 1 billion euros of agricultural products by 2030."

"To support agricultural development, the National Investment Scheme 2025 offers a record fund of 20 million euros, which are structured into nine support measures, which can be used by farmers and agricultural entities to develop personalized investment plans," emphasizes Minister Denaj.

The soft loan launched in January, with an interest rate of only 2% and 70% collateral from the state, is intertwined with the National Investment Scheme 2025 with a 50% grant, creating a complete financing package for the agricultural sector.

The Minister explains in her post that applicants can benefit from several support measures, thus enabling them to create a sustainable and comprehensive plan for the development of their farms.

This program is open to individual farmers, as well as to companies with physical or legal status, who can apply for financial assistance through Agropikas or Regional Agricultural Extension Agencies in their area.

The National Investment Scheme 2025 offers 9 support measures:

construction of new solar greenhouses for the production of vegetables,
strawberries and table grapes;
new plantings in fruit trees, olives, citrus and vineyards;
anti-hail nets for existing trees, citrus and vineyards;
drip irrigation systems in orchards and vineyards;
construction of facilities for livestock and poultry breeding;
mechanization and modernization of agricultural and livestock farms;
processing and packaging equipment for vegetables, fruits, grapes, wine, olives and olive oil;
investments in agritourism;
fishing baskets and nets for aquaculture.
Applications are open from July 30 to September 30, and farmers can receive assistance from the team of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development for any questions or needs for help.

The 2025 Investment Scheme offers excellent opportunities for the development and modernization of the agricultural sector in Albania, contributing to the growth of exports and the improvement of production standards./ Monitor Magazine
