Agriculture Processing and Marketing Grants
The Processing and Marketing Grant Scheme is currently closed. A new scheme under the Scottish Rural Development Programme will be launched later in 2007.
Background
The aim of the Processing and Marketing Grant scheme is to improve structural deficiencies in the food processing industry and in so doing attempt to guarantee lasting economic benefits to farmers and growers. The competitive schemes include a capital element for assistance towards the construction of buildings and purchase of plant and equipment and a non-capital element which can assist with a range of projects including market research and consultancy, product development, point-of-sale material and attendance at trade fairs.
