Description
The Rural Development Programme (RDP) is an instrument desired by the European Union to financially support interventions in the agricultural, forestry and environmental fields.
The Autonomous Province of Trento is an active participant in this project and the Sustainable Development and Protected Areas Service is the body delegated to take care of the environmental sector. The eligible interventions concern ecological connectivity, the safeguarding of biodiversity, the landscape and the public use of natural assets.
Operation 4.4.3 concerns non-productive investments for ecological connectivity and the restoration of Natura 2000 habitats and other high value agricultural habitats.
Objectives
- Favouring the recovery of habitats and ecological connectivity (especially in the valley bottom, Natura 2000 Network habitats, of species of the Habitats and Birds Directives)
- To counter the loss of high nature value agricultural habitats and the spread of invasive alien species
