Rural Development and KKYP Grants: How to Get Started

The Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry's Rural Development Investment Support Programme (KKYP) provides non-repayable support for agricultural investments. Support rates, eligible investment topics and scoring are set by the communiqué and implementation guide published each year; always read the current texts before applying.

Three things should be settled before applying. First, land and ownership: the parcel's title and use status, consent from co-owners if the title is shared, and a water use permit where required. Second, the project: the technical design, cost tables and required permits are prepared by licensed engineers. Third, scoring: the project's strengths and weaknesses against the guide's evaluation criteria should be clear before submission.

At Hierapolis Halikarnas we advise on pre-application preparation, the business plan and the application file. On projects where we provide consultancy we do not quote equipment; purchases are made from independent suppliers. The grant decision belongs to the Ministry; approval cannot be guaranteed.
