- pre-application form information in '²non-Annex I' added
Introduction
The maximum rate of grant your business will be eligible for is determined by the size of the business: large, medium, small or micro and by the activity or products your business produces.
Capital grants – investments in physical assets
| Business size | ¹Annex I inputs to ¹Annex I outputs | ¹Annex I inputs to ²Non-annex I outputs |
|---|---|---|
| Large enterprise | 40% | Ineligible |
| Medium enterprise | 40% | 10% |
| Small enterprise | 40% | 20% |
| Micro enterprise | 40% | 20% |
¹ Annex I – products are agricultural products as defined in Annex I of the Treaty of the Functioning of the European Union. More detailed information can be found in:
List of eligible agricultural products
² Non-Annex I – if your output is not an Annex I product, then medium, small and micro companies are eligible but the grant rate is lower. If a negligible element of your outputs are non-Annex I, overall the outputs may be considered to be Annex I for grant funding purposes.
In these circumstances you may wish to complete the pre-application form in advance of the full application for clarification as the maximum rate of grant you could be eligible for will vary.
Non-capital grants (including co-operation)
Further information regarding non-capital grants and co-operation projects will be published later in 2015.
