A reinforced strategic programming approach
• Clear focus on policy priorities:
6 Union priorities for rural development
Define the points of emphasis of the policy with respect to the needs for intervention identified at the level of the Union
3 cross-cutting objectives: Innovation, Environment, Climate Change
• Strengthened result-orientation of RD programmes

Research and Innovation: what are we talking about?
Research: creating new knowledge
Innovation: translating into practice new ideas – coming from research or from the ground – and new knowledge
• Concrete new products or services delivered to the market
• New ways of working

• Commission Communication (COM (2012) 79)
• Aim: To foster a competitive and sustainable agriculture and forestry sector that "achieves more from less"
• Approach: "Closing the innovation gap" between research and practice by using the interactive innovation model + Link actors via an EIP Network
• Funding: Existing Union policies -> Rural Development
-> Research & Innovation "Horizon 2020"
EIP – AGRI in short

Means for Implementing the EIP – AGRI1. Rural Development Policy:
Focus groups / Setting up "operational groups" (key entities of the EIP AGRI)
Pilot projects / innovation support services / investments / knowledge transfer / networking / cooperation, ...
Implemented via Member States and/or regions.
2. European Union Research Policy (Horizon 2020)
Funding research projects, also involving on-farm experiments, to enhance the knowledge base for innovation
Interactive formats such as multi-actor projects and thematic networks
Implemented at EU level (at least 3 MS or associated countries).
3. Networking

1. Rural Development Policy:What kind of projects can OGs work with?
• New grouping, new project √
• Existing grouping, new project √
• Existing grouping, existing project X
• The OG must demonstrably have an active project which will contribute to RD priorities

From EU side:- Establish internal procedures
- Describe the project- Describe the expected results
- Disseminate the results But…
National and regional Managing Authorities can complement EU requirements
