Tilskudd til frakt av rein i forbindelse med slakting

This grant provides subsidy for transportation of reindeer in connection with slaughtering. The program covers two types of transportation: transport of live reindeer from collection fences to approved slaughterhouses, and transport of reindeer carcasses from slaughterhouses to further processing facilities. The subsidy aims to equalize prices for reindeer meat to reindeer owners in different reindeer grazing districts, enable efficient slaughtering and marketing of reindeer meat, and increase slaughter output before migration to autumn and winter pastures. To be eligible, the reindeer must be transported at least 25 kilometers between August 15 and December 31 for live animals, or between August 15 and March 31 for carcasses. The reindeer must be slaughtered at an approved Norwegian slaughterhouse that meets reporting requirements. For live animal transport, the transporter and motor vehicle must be approved for such transport. No subsidy is provided for reindeer slaughtered abroad.
