What does it predict
The contributions referred to in this public notice have the aim of financing projects and initiatives, generally at a regional level, aimed at the valorisation, traceability and safety of local agri-food products and at the promotion of the direct relationship between producers and consumers and of the short supply chain, also in light of the uncertain outcomes of the new international crises, which are pushing economic systems to reorganize themselves according to logics of proximity and loyalty with producers, as better detailed in the art. 2 of the notice.
