Original title (NL): VLIF Niet-productieve investeringen voor milieu- en klimaatdoelen
VLIF strand dedicated to investments without direct productive return, aimed at environmental and climate objectives. It covers biodiversity and habitat protection, erosion reduction, soil and water quality, controlled drainage and water storage systems, landscape features, landscape integration of farm buildings and wolf protection. The rate is 50%, 75% or 100% depending on how far the investment has secondary productive characteristics. The windows are the same four VLIF quarterly windows. After selection, implementation must be confirmed within 5.5 months and the payment claim filed within 2.5 years of the block's closure, with a field inspection and administrative approval.
Farms meeting the active farmer definition; groups of farmers constituted as a legal entity.
OPEN at the verification date (window 20 July - 30 September 2026). The page publishes no per-project or per-beneficiary ceilings. The 'controlled drainage and water storage systems' category is the most relevant for a water-solutions supplier, but must be checked against the quarter's VLIF-codelijst. Processing times reported by the source: around 11 months for files submitted before March 2026.
