'Preventing damage from wolves' grant scheme.
The Provinsje Fryslân adopts new subsidy scheme 'Preventing damage by wolves'. In brief, the new scheme looks as follows:
- The subsidy area in Fryslân has been expanded. Animal farmers in the municipalities of Heerenveen, Ooststellingwerf, Opsterland, Smallingerland and Weststellingwerf can apply for subsidies.
- The subsidy scheme has been further broadened to allow animal keepers of all ungulates except fallow deer to apply for subsidies.
- The maximum grant amount has been increased from 20,000 euros to 30,000 euros.
- The administrative burden on applications has been eased by reducing the need to provide supporting documents.
Publication of the scheme will follow in 1-2 weeks and can then also be found (along with the new application form) at
