Hyrrä

Ruokavirasto's online system where rural funding applications and payment claims are filed.

Why it matters

Rural support is applied for in Hyrrä, not through the Elinvoimakeskus's other channels.

CAP funding

The EU Common Agricultural Policy also funds rural business support such as startup money, rural investment and development grants, through Ruokavirasto, the Elinvoimakeskus and local Leader groups.

Why it matters

Rural CAP instruments form a separate track with its own budgets, open to most companies outside city cores.
