Make empowerment happen
· 1 min read
Applications for Comprehensive Agricultural Support Programme funding for 2018/19 are being received and will soon be adjudicated. The process has become much stricter, so please ensure all relevant documentation is in place before submitting your application. For more information contact your local Western Cape department of agriculture office.
VinPro will provide management services during the process and Phil Bowes will chair the Commodity Project Allocation Committee (CPAC). Many projects were cancelled by government and applicants during the 2016/17 funding cycle. Project implementation for the wine industry under the 2017/18 funding cycle started in the second quarter of this year.
VinPro has a memorandum of understanding with Capital Harvest and it has agreed to consider all CPAC applications. So send in your ideas. And make empowerment happen!
For more information call Phil Bowes, VinPro transformation and development manager, on 021 276 0434.
