2010/C 290/05

Aid No: XA 138/10

Member State: Belgium

Region: Vlaanderen

Title of aid scheme or name of company receiving an individual aid: Communicatiemiddelen voor de korte keten — de kortste link naar de consument, najaar 2010

Legal basis: Subsidiebesluit voor het project „Communicatiemiddelen voor de korte keten — de kortste link naar de consument” van Bioforum Vlaanderen vzw (zie bijlage).

Annual expenditure planned under the scheme or overall amount of individual aid granted to the company: EUR 0,025 million

Maximum aid intensity: The maximum aid intensity is 93,81 % of the proven costs of the aid project submitted. Overhead costs are not eligible for subsidy.

Date of implementation: The aid will not be granted until the subsidy decree has been signed by the minister and the resources have been laid down in the budget (mid-August to September 2010) and will not enter into force until the measure has been published in the Official Journal.

Duration of scheme or individual aid award: Until 31 December 2010.

Objective of aid: The aid will be granted to Bioforum during the autumn of 2010 in order to support short-chain marketing for organic farming and food. On the one hand, farm shops and market stallholders will be supported by means of material (flags, signs, vehicle stickers, canvases) to make them more visible. On the other hand, knowledge about organic farming will be disseminated by means of the booklet ‘Vergeten biogroenten’ (‘Forgotten organic vegetables’) by Velt, which will be distributed among short-chain market participants, who can in turn give it to their customers as a gift.

The aid measure falls under Article 15 of Regulation (EC) No 1857/2006. The aid may cover 100 % of the following costs:

Article 15(2)(c): aid concerning consultancy services provided by third parties;

Article 15(2)(e): aid for factual information on quality systems open to products from other countries, on generic products and on the nutritional benefits of generic products and suggested uses for them;

Article 15(2)(f): aid for publications such as catalogues or websites presenting factual information about producers from a given region or producers of a given product, provided the information and presentation is neutral and that all producers concerned have equal opportunities to be represented in the publication. Aid will be granted only for activities and information material in which no reference is made to the origin of the product.

The project does not provide for aid for advertising purposes.

All the paragraphs of Article 15 will be complied with.

Sector(s) concerned: Organic farming

The aid will be granted only to small and medium-sized enterprises.
