DR-30 - Support for the setting up of young farmers

Original title (RO): DR-30 - Sprijin pentru instalarea tinerilor fermieri

Data to be re-checked. The source does not publish the status or the dates of this scheme explicitly. Do not prepare an application without checking the managing body’s portal.

What it funds

Lump-sum setting-up premium for young farmers and new agricultural entrepreneurs, aimed at improving the age structure of the sector and promoting organic farming. Support is EUR 70,000 as a grant for holdings with Standard Output between EUR 12,000 and 100,000, between EUR 8,000 and 100,000 in mountain areas, and between EUR 2,300 and 100,000 for protected-space vegetable production. Payment is 75% on signature of the financing contract and 25% on correct implementation of the business plan, within a maximum of 3 years (up to 5 years for orchards). At the verification date no session is open.

Who can apply

Authorised natural persons (PFA), individual (II) and family (IF) enterprises; sole shareholders who are also directors of a limited company; majority shareholders (50%+1) who are also directors of a limited company.

Notes and caveats

STATUS TO BE VERIFIED: the page and applicant guide are published and up to date on afir.ro, but DR-30 does not appear in the active session list as of 27 August 2026 and is absent from the indicative MADR calendar for 2026 (which instead schedules DR-12, the consolidation measure, for young farmers). No budget was identified. For an Italian company this is the least accessible intervention of the group, since it requires the farm head to be a natural person setting up as a young farmer in Romania.
