Funding may be used for projects looking to: undertake innovation, adopt new technologies, improve carbon footprint, diversify into new markets, develop and promote the visitor economy, develop local tourist attractions and/or enhance local visitor experiences. We would expect projects to deliver outcomes such as job creation, increased turnover/growth, improved productivity and the adoption of new to firm technologies or processes.
Please note: Farm based business applications can only be used to support diversification projects outside of agriculture (for example, creating/expanding rural leisure and tourism facilities) and cannot be used to fund any farm machinery or to diversify within agriculture.
