Rural Development Plan (RDP)

Rural Development Plan (RDP)

The RDP is part of a joint Welsh Government and European Union strategy.

It covers 4 areas, known as axes:

  • agriculture and forestry
  • environment and countryside
  • quality of life in rural areas
  • locally based approaches to rural development

These 4 areas are delivered through a number of schemes.

The Welsh Government is the Managing Authority for the RDP in Wales and is responsible for the implementation and management of the Programme.

How can I apply for funding?
