Description
Farmer Portal is a national online portal that enables farmers in Bosnia and Herzegovina to submit and track applications for agricultural subsidies and rural development support schemes. The portal serves as the official digital entry point for national and entity-level support measures, bringing different crop, livestock and rural investment schemes into a single accessible interface.
Technology
The portal is a cloud-based web application where farmers can create an account, log in securely, fill in standardized subsidy application forms, and upload the required documents. Users can track the status of their applications on a dashboard, receive notifications about missing information or decisions, and review their payment history in one place. On the government side, the portal provides tools to review applications, check eligibility against beneficiary and land records, request clarifications, and approve or reject files. The portal supports monitoring of payment flows, reporting, and audit trails.
Target
Farmer Portal primarily targets smallholder, medium and large farms and agricultural cooperatives and access services such as loans, insurance and other administrative procedures. Public sector staff in ministries, paying agencies and local offices also benefit by using the portal to manage beneficiary records.
Business model
The initiative is free of charge and operates as a public e-government service funded by the authorities responsible for agricultural support and rural development in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Impact
Farmer Portal aims to improve the efficiency and transparency of agricultural subsidy administration. The portal intends to reduce errors and missing information, shorten processing times, and support more timely and predictable payments to farmers. The portal also aims to strengthen governance and monitor agricultural support.
