La Rioja proposes 44,184 euros in aid for hunting reserves for 11 beneficiaries

The Official Gazette of La Rioja number 220, dated Friday, November 13, 2026, publishes the proposed provisional resolution report for the 2026 public call for financial aid, in the form of grants, for actions to improve the environment and infrastructure in hunting grounds. The document, with official reference BOR-A-20261113-III–4322 (III.4322, file 202611110125589), proposes granting aid to the 11 applications submitted for a total amount of 44,184.77 euros. The proposal is submitted to the Director General of Natural Environment and Landscape and opens a ten-business-day period for allegations.

A call supported by Order 34/2015

The aid is governed by Order 34/2015, of August 25, of the Department of Agriculture, Livestock and Environment, which establishes the regulatory bases for grants for actions to improve the environment and infrastructure of hunting grounds. The call for the current fiscal year was approved by Resolution number 1583/2026, of September 9, of the Department of Agriculture, Livestock, Rural World and Environment, published in the Official Gazette of La Rioja number 178, of September 16, 2026.

The application period was between September 17 and October 16, 2026. During this interval, 11 applications were registered, all of which were correct following the administrative review of the documentation.

The report indicates that it has not been necessary to apply the valuation priorities provided for in the regulatory order, as the amount of approved aid in the various budget items has not been exceeded. No denials are proposed: the 11 applications meet the requirements of Resolution 1583/2026 and Order 34/2015, and there is sufficient credit in the allocated items.
