Less than one month ago, the Italian Minister of agricultural policies Maurizio Martina igned a pact on Common Agricultural Policy (Pac) together with the Italian regions.
To support young Italian entrepreneurs in the development of the agricultural sector, from 2014 to 2020 €52billion will be allocated. Of these, €27b are subsidized directly by Europe, €21b are co-financed by European funds and Italy and the last €4b are provided by the Common Market Organization (Ocm). Part of the reason of the focus on younger generations is that in Italy only 5% of agricultural entrepreneurs are under-40.
