Investments in supra-farm irrigation (73-05)

Original title (DE): 73-05-BML Investitionen in überbetriebliche Bewässerung

What it funds

This is Austria's measure dedicated specifically to collective irrigation and therefore the most relevant to Agrostar's core business. It funds investment costs for building water abstraction, storage, treatment and supply infrastructure, including grid connection costs (transformer stations and supply lines). Applications are filed continuously on the DFP and assessed under a scoring scheme with a maximum of 11 points and a minimum threshold of 5 points. The measure is national and not regionalised.

Who can apply

Associations of at least three farm managers, agricultural cooperatives and water cooperatives (Wassergenossenschaften) established under the Austrian Water Act (WRG 1959). Individual farmers are not eligible.

Access for non-resident businesses

L'investimento deve essere realizzato in Austria; per i consorzi idrici è richiesta la costituzione ai sensi del WRG 1959, quindi di diritto austriaco.

Notes and caveats

For Agrostar this is the most interesting Austrian measure as a market: the beneficiary is a consortium or cooperative, not the individual farm, so the Italian company enters as supplier/designer of the system. The measure's 'Aufrufe und Fristen' page showed no dates: the blocked-selection cut-off dates should be confirmed with the DFP hotline (050 3151 99) or dfp@ama.gv.at.
