Chamber of Agricultural Workers - Contribution to Administrative Expenses

The Chamber of Agricultural Workers in Carinthia receives a continuous grant to cover administrative expenses arising from the declining contribution income due to decreasing numbers of agricultural workers. Public institutions with comparable tasks in agriculture and forestry benefit from direct funding in the field of agriculture & rural development. The objective of this measure is to secure the operational capacity of the chamber and thereby ensure professional support for farmers, forest owners, and municipal institutions. The type of funding provided is a non-repayable grant specifically compensating administrative costs and stabilizing ongoing work in the agricultural sector.

A formal application with detailed evidence of all administrative costs is required for submission. The funding conditions are based on a discretionary decision, so each submission is reviewed individually. Since the deadline is unlimited, applications can be submitted at any time. The responsible authority is the Office of the Carinthian State Government, Department 10 – Agriculture and Forestry, Rural Areas, which coordinates national and EU-funded programs and supports the implementation of innovative, sustainable measures in rural areas. This funding establishes a continuous administrative foundation that ensures the long-term existence and performance capacity of the Chamber of Agricultural Workers in Carinthia, thereby making an important contribution to strengthening regional agricultural structures.
