- Taking into account the scope of the intervention, the action plan must also contain specific information related to the following areas:
- Management support associated with the interventions: “Agri-environmental zone plans”; “Management of the cork oak forest by results”; “Integrated management in critical zones” and “Protection of species with forest-environmental status”:
- Awareness-raising among the target population and specialized technical support for beneficiaries within the scope of the agro-sylvo-environmental commitments contracted;
- Preparation and implementation of technical standards and other guidelines for the protection and management of agricultural and forestry systems related to the interventions in question within the framework of interventions with agro-sylvo-environmental commitments.

- Awareness-raising among the target population and specialized technical support for the final beneficiaries of the Interventions relating to Sustainable Collective Irrigation;
- Preparation and implementation of technical standards and other guidelines to improve the management of water resources for the final beneficiaries of interventions relating to Sustainable Collective Irrigation.
- Specialized technical support for the installation of young farmers associated with the interventions: “Support for the Installation of Young Farmers” and “Productive Investment for Young Farmers – 1st Installation”:
- Awareness-raising among the target population and specialized technical support;
- Promoting the skills of young farmers at an early stage, particularly those that have an impact on the profitability and sustainability of “new” farms.
- Commitments
