Farmers' Aid

The Farmers' Aid in Burgenland supports agricultural enterprises that have fallen into existential difficulties due to circumstances beyond their control. As a direct grant measure, this funding offer aims to quickly and unbureaucratically alleviate financial bottlenecks. A continuous application possibility ensures a timely response to unforeseen emergencies, with support equally targeted at small and medium-sized enterprises. The initiative strengthens the sustainable management of rural areas and contributes to securing regional value creation as well as preserving family-run agricultural businesses.

Eligible are all agricultural units in Burgenland that have fallen into financial distress through no fault of their own due to external factors—such as natural disasters or unforeseeable market disruptions. Applications require a precise description of the emergency situation as well as confirmation by independent third parties. An informal request should be submitted directly to Department 4 at the Office of the Burgenland State Government. Decisions are made by individual notice, allowing for individual assessment and tailored support. This funding enables the sustainable stabilization of existentially threatening situations and secures the long-term development of agricultural enterprises.
