Minister of Agriculture and Forestry Dr. Bekir Pakdemirli stated that they continue to discriminate positively to our youth and women farmers within the scope of small family businesses and gave the good news of the grant.

We will provide 50 grants. For this, we issued the new Presidential Decree in July ”.
Minister Pakdemirli sampled the areas to be prioritized in the 50% Grant;
“Being young and female, living in the countryside and wanting to establish a small scale facility that will process primary agricultural products and turn them into value-added products.
Sample businesses; Pickled Leaf Plant, Honey Processing and Packaging Plant, Vegetable Fruit Drying Plant, Oyster Mushroom Production Plant, etc. "
