The GSAP comprises the following components: (a) guaranteeing the stability, predictability, and transparency of agricultural policy and the state support system; (b) stimulating diversification in agricultural production and promoting integrated development of rural areas; (c) strengthening the capacity of the national food safety system; (d) improving the efficient use of available infrastructure for storage and transportation of agri-food products, creating a stable climate for investments in infrastructure and logistics; (e) improving tenure security, value, and transparency of the use of state agricultural land; (f) improving water resource management and user-led irrigation service delivery; (g) creating preconditions for improved access to agricultural inputs for all types of agricultural producers; and (h) improving access to finance and risk management instruments for all stakeholders using EU and international best practices. The Program will further support the state support reform process and will support Ministry of Agrarian Policy and Food (MAPF) in implementing a set of key actions to improve the transparency, efficiency and targeting of state support. The expected benefits will be: (a) strengthened capacity of MAPF to evaluate policy instruments from the standpoint of efficiency, effectiveness, and equity (including through KPIs); (b) improved transparency of state support to agriculture; (c) improved awareness and application rates by small and medium agricultural producers for state support; (d) improved statistical information on agricultural producers; and (e) improved alignment of the state support system with EU requirements and practices.
