This guide provides a synopsis of the different grant schemes available to the various sectors of Irish Horticulture.  The grants cover a wide range of activities from market development to the aiding of capital investment for horticultural enterprises.  Some schemes are quite specific, targeting environmental practices, organic production or facilitating the needs of emerging markets for the marketing and processing of food products.  The publication also examines the main State Supporting Agencies and describes their role in fostering business development at national and international level.
