  1. Ministero delle Politiche Agricole e ForestaliDirezione Generale dello Sviluppo Rurale “Future of European Rural Development” Italian experience in 2000-2006 programming and challenges for new generation of RDPs Krakow, 30th November 2005 Giuseppe Blasi

  2. Table of contents Financial management and rural development Rural development consistency and integration with other policies

  3. Italian programming architecture(2000 – 2006 period) NON OBJECTIVE 1 REGIONS: - 1 Rural Development Plan for each Region OBJECTIVE 1 REGIONS: - 1 Regional Operational Programme for each Region - 1 Rural Development Plan for each Region (only so called accompanying measures) • ALL ITALIAN REGIONS: • 1 “LEADER +” Programme for each Region • 1 National Programme (“LEADER + NETWORK”)

  4. Financial implementation (up-dated to October 31st, 2005)

  5. RDP 2000-2006: expenditure trend

  6. What is happening in 2000-2006 programming ? • Different financial performances • Why ? • Different organizational and management skills of Regions • Different financial rules for the two funds (EAGGF Guarantee allows greater flexibility) • Different kinds of operations implemented (Leader type operations are slower)

  7. What is happening in 2000-2006 programming ? • Why RDPs experience a better performance ? • Close coordination at central level that allowed financial temporary compensations between Regions with low expenditure level and Regions with high expenditure level • EAGGF Guarantee expenditure rules are quite pressing so Regions have to adopt more rigorous procedures

  8. What will happen in 2007-2013 programming ? • How to save the experience gained in 2000-2006 ? • The only option could be a national RDP: a big challenge in a high regionalized country as Italy. That will be a political choice • There will be just one fund with financial rules that do not allow compensations among programmes • What we are doing now ? • We are thinking about a new programme model (in any case in the framework of RD regulation), that could ensure regional autonomy in programming and managing, leaving the role for coordination in financial matters at a national level • And what more ? • This new role for the national level would be coherent with the new strategic approach for RD becouse the national RDP would ensure a greater consistency with both NSP and CSG

  9. Consistency and integrationwith Cohesion Policies Where to work ? AT NATIONAL LEVEL Between NSP and NSF AT PROGRAMME LEVEL Between programmes AT PROJECT LEVEL Between Stake Holders and measure

  10. Consistency and integrationwith Cohesion Policies Where to work ? • The next programming period is based on the following principle: one fund one, programme • For that reason it will be difficult to have integration among various funds • (different rules can create incompatibility) • The strategic planning will be the most important instrument to ensure consistency and integration

  11. Consistency and integrationwith Cohesion Policies How to work ? • Share a common definition of territorial areas on which concentrating operations • Once the areas are defined, it is necessary to find the integration on the most important strategic issues

  12. RD and Cohesion policies How we are working at national level • Definition of Rural Areas • by OECD

  13. RD and Cohesion policiesHow we are working at national level Territorial dimension NSP (EARDF+CAP+State Aid+other national instruments) • ………… • Clusters industry • Agri-food clusters 3. Other rural areas • Periurban • With environmental value • Declining and threatened of abandonment NSF (ERDF+ESF+State Aid+other national instruments) • Cities • Clusters industry 3.Other Rural areas

  14. RD and Cohesion policiesHow we are working at national level Commonissues on which find integration (not just demarcation) • Research • Networks, ICT, infrastructures and logistic • Training (farmers and rural population) • Environment • Job policies (employment and entrepreneurship)

  15. RD and Environmental policiesCommon working issues • Forestry sector • Water sector • Biodiversity • Soil • Landscape

  16. RD and Cohesion policiesHow we are working at programme level • Programmes should detail how demarcation and integration have to take place • Ensuring arrangements and close cooperation between managing authorities of different programmes • A specific coordination structure should be set up

  17. RD and Cohesion policies How we are going to work at project level Integration can be found in: • Business plan • Agri-food commodity system • Joint operations • Territorial operations

  18. RD and Cohesion policiesHow we are going to work at project level 1: Business plan Grant support to beneficiaries that have a business plan containing operations related to more than a measures (not only funded by EARDF)

  19. RD and Cohesion policiesHow we are going to work at project level 2: Agri-food chain system Coordinated operations, made to support investments from subjects involved in the same agri-food chain, aimed to increase the value of a product or to decrease production costs Who is the beneficiary?

  20. RD and Cohesion policies How we are going to work at project level 3: Joint operations Projects made by a community in order to increase the impact of joint operations comparing to a sum of individual operations

  21. RD and Cohesion policiesHow we are going to work at project level 4: Territorial projects A territorial body, being in charge to organize a set of coordinated and consistent operations based on a defined area Who is the beneficiary?

  22. RD and Cohesion policiesHow we are going to work at project level What we learned from 2000-2006 Integrated projects need: • Training and information for involved subjects • Animation actions • Technical support for partnerships • Subjects with a well defined role • Improvement of the governance • Coordination and subsidiarity between regional and local government
