KULAP 2014 - Apply for subsidies
Service Description
KULAP 2014 is the Thuringian program for the promotion of environmentally and climate-friendly agriculture, preservation of the cultural landscape, nature conservation and landscape management.
KULAP is not an income subsidy. The amount of subsidies for the individual measures is intended to compensate for the additional expenditure or loss of income incurred by the farmer for complying with specific subsidy requirements that exceed the legal requirements. A farm undertakes to participate in a measure voluntarily for a period of at least 5 years. Funding is provided for arable land and grassland measures that serve to protect and improve the environment, as well as for organic farming and the keeping of farm animals threatened with extinction.
The arable measures (A1 to A6) are in detail:
- Species-rich crop rotation A1
- Farm erosion control A3
- Nature-emphasizing structural elements A4 (flower strips, protective strips, field edge strips, erosion control strips)
- Use of arable land as grassland A5
- Red kite protection A6
Grassland measures (G1-G7) include:
- Species-rich grassland G1
- Biotope grassland G2-G5 (basic level, aggravation level, herding sheep)
- Open land preservation G6
- Permanent conversion of arable land into permanent grassland G7
Animal measure T- indigenous livestock breeds threatened with extinction
Organic farming Ö
- Introduction /maintenance Ö1 and Ö2
