The Subbética Cordobesa Rural Development Group is advancing in the management of the LEADER aid program for 2023-2027, with 24 applications already registered for investment projects.

The call for applications, open since April 23, 2026, has a total budget of 2,225,640.45 euros. These public funds are aimed at fostering economic growth and improving services across the 14 municipalities that make up the region.
The support lines are divided into two main areas. On one hand, private sector support, which accounts for over 1.3 million euros for the creation and modernization of SMEs and the agri-food industry. On the other, public investments managed by local councils to improve facilities and infrastructure.
To date, the technical team has received 24 requests representing a total investment of over 4 million euros, with grant requests exceeding 2.7 million euros. The organization notes a growing interest from promoters following the summer period.
The Subbética GDR continues to provide technical advice to facilitate the submission of new projects. Interested parties can visit their offices in Cabra, contact them by phone, or reach out through their official digital channels.
