Na programu bodo praktične teme, pomembne za vse, ki razmišljajo o razvoju kmetije: poslovni in finančni načrt, financiranje naložb, razpisi, davki, pravne oblike in osebna finančna varnost.

Dogodek je zanimiv tudi z vidika večnamenskega kmetijstva in podjetništva – dobra ideja namreč potrebuje tudi premišljen načrt, da lahko dolgoročno zaživi.

📅 2. oktober 2026
🕘 9.00–12.30
📍 KGZS, Ljubljana
✅ Udeležba je brezplačna, število mest pa je omejeno.
