Programme: Rural Development Programme

The farm will continue to develop in the field of beekeeping. The fallow land available to the farm this year - 2,077 decares and the newly established apple plantations - 12,000 decares will be applied for support as such under the schemes for basic and additional support for income sustainability. Thus, the total usable and cultivated area of the farm in the current economic year will be 14,077 decares, which is the entire area of the property. Already in the first economic year, it is planned to create and register a livestock facility - an apiary - in the place of the fallow land. That is why the usable /arable/ area of the property will be reduced to 12,000 decares, as the fallows will no longer apply for support as arable agricultural area, but will be used for an apiary. Already with the creation of the apiary, 60 bee colonies will begin to be bred in it, some of which will be purchased, and some of which will be created through our own breeding activity. The number of bee families will be maintained at a minimum of 60 by the date of the business plan implementation check. The area of the orchard will remain unchanged - 12,000 decares. No increase in agricultural areas is foreseen. Professional skills and competences in the field of agriculture will be acquired. Starting the implementation of the business plan no later than nine months from the date of conclusion of the administrative contract for the provision of non-grant financial assistance will begin with the completion of a course including training on basic problems of environmental protection components in the agricultural sector or participation in information activities regarding these issues. A video surveillance system for the apiary will be purchased and put into operation after its establishment. All requirements of the national and European legislation applicable to the farm in the field of crop production and beekeeping will be met and observed.
