Stimuleringstilskot veterinærdekning

This is a state grant program for veterinary coverage in economically disadvantaged municipalities in Norway. Municipalities have responsibility for organizing clinical veterinary emergency services outside regular working hours and ensuring satisfactory access to animal health services. This state subsidy scheme allows businesses in the agricultural sector to apply through the municipality for financial support to maintain veterinary coverage. The grant requires applicants to participate in the on-call duty system outside regular working hours, though the municipality may grant exemptions from this requirement. Applications are submitted annually through Fjord Kommune, which administers the program locally for eligible agricultural businesses in the region.
