A Serbian family farm is growing greener thanks to EBRD and EU support

Author: Bojana Vlajcic

We’re helping the agricultural sector in Serbia to become greener and more sustainable

Serbian agribusiness Ferdinland has worked in agriculture for generations, cultivating wheat, corn, sunflowers and rapeseed.

With financing from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and the European Union (EU) secured under the SME Go Green Programme, the company purchased a new combine harvester, which has allowed it to reduce its operational costs and improve productivity.

The upgrade also came with a bonus: a 15 per cent cashback incentive, financed by the EU, which the family used to buy additional equipment for the combine harvester.
