Grants for farming and livestock
In brief
A farming or livestock operation can fund its investment and modernization through the Plan de Compétitivité et d'Adaptation des Exploitations Agricoles (PCAE, FEADER) and regional grants. This page lists the schemes currently validated for this trade, with their funder and maximum amount where known.
This sector covers farming and livestock operations, across all types of production.
The grants listed here overlap substantially with those on the needs-based page "funding an agricultural or agri-food project", which details the PCAE and other FEADER schemes.
This page helps you identify relevant funding leads. It does not, however, replace an individual check of your eligibility.
Run a personalised scan to identify the public grants and funding your company may be able to access.

What projects are covered?
The grants listed here fund the modernization of equipment, livestock buildings, and precision equipment for a farming operation.
What amount can be obtained?
The amount actually awarded depends on your project, the scheme's rules, and the funder's decision.
How do you identify the funding suited to your operation?
The number of schemes listed makes a manual selection lengthy, and sometimes imprecise.
The Capital OS scan automatically cross-references these criteria with the full set of referenced public grants, to identify the ones that genuinely apply to you:
- Your type of operation (livestock, arable farming...)
- Your location
- The nature of your project
