LV We are launching autumn seminars in the regions "Current affairs in the agricultural sector in 2014-2015"
In cooperation with the Jēkabpils Farmers' Association, the association "Farmers' Council" organizes and invites farmers to the annual autumn information seminar in Jēkabpils, on October 2, at the premises of the Latvian Rural Consultation and Education Center at Bebru Street 108. The seminar starts at 10:00.
As every year, this year too, the association "Farmers' Council" is organizing annual autumn seminars throughout Latvia on current issues important to farmers. This time, the organization's management will inform about support payments to farmers (direct payments, greening and state support), planned support measures for agricultural enterprises, as well as current changes in legislation (Protection Zones Law, Hunting Law, Construction Law, etc.).
Starting from October 1st of this year, changes to the Construction Law will come into force, which will directly affect farmers who are planning construction or reconstruction work on their farms. Therefore, we have invited representatives of the Construction and Housing Policy Department of the Ministry of Economics – the authors of the aforementioned changes – to speak about the changes at the seminar.
To participate in the seminar, please apply in advance to Jana Staka, economics specialist at the Latvian Rural Consulting and Education Center, by writing to: jana.staka@llkc.lv or by phone: 29723947.
Information about the next seminars in Zemgale, Vidzeme and Kurzeme will follow!
The organization of the seminar is supported by the State Rural Network.
