A road show to present some 3,000 billion forints (EUR 102m) worth of completed rural development projects will start in Nagykanizsa in western Hungary on August 3, the director of the national rural development institute (NAKVI) said.

The road show will consist of another six stops. The projects to be presented have been carried out under the arrangements of the Darányi Ignác Plan’s New Hungary Rural Development Programme, said Dávid Mezőszentgyörgyi.

A total of 1,300 billion forints has been available to Hungary for agricultural and rural development projects in the current seven-year budget period of the European Union, he said. Around 90% of this sum has been allocated already and unspent resources are not likely to remain by the end of the year, he added.
