National Network

Hungarian Network

The Hungarian CAP Network aims to involve farmers, public administration, advisors, research and innovation experts in the implementation of the Hungarian CAP Strategic Plan. Its primary role is to inform both the general public and potential beneficiaries about the CAP’s objectives, as well as the interventions and funding regulations related to agriculture, forestry, food production and rural development.

To facilitate this work, the network operates dedicated support units focused on key horizontal priorities of the Strategic Plan: rural and regional development, innovation and digitalisation, and green structures. These support units function under the coordination of the Hungarian Ministry of Agriculture.
