€10.7 billion from new EU partnership fund allocated to Austria

Brussels – The upcoming multiannual EU budget is projected to reach two trillion euros, introducing new frameworks. Key elements of agricultural and regional policies, alongside other significant domains, will be incorporated into national and regional partnership plans with a funding allocation of 865 billion euros. The EU Commission indicates that Austria is set to receive 10.7 billion euros from 2028 to 2034, with nearly one billion earmarked for migration initiatives.

A total of 400 million euros will be allocated to the social and climate fund. Additionally, 9.4 billion euros are designated for various sectors, covering critical areas such as agriculture, rural development, and regional funding. Overall, the Commission plans to allocate approximately 300 billion euros for agriculture, with 218 billion euros reserved for less developed regions. For context, Germany is projected to receive 68.4 billion euros, while France and Spain will each get around 90 billion euros. Poland tops the list with 123 billion euros.

For comparison, Vienna received approximately 2.2 billion euros from the EU in 2023, including 1.3 billion for domestic agriculture and 335 million euros for research. Austria also obtained about 250 million euros in cohesion funds related to regional policy.

Opposition from Austria

Opposition has already arisen in Austria regarding the EU Commission’s proposals. European Minister Claudia Plakolm (ÖVP) urged for “further development” of the funding structures before a meeting with her counterparts, emphasizing the need for assurances that Austria will benefit. The second pillar of agricultural policy holds particular significance for Austria, which advocates for sufficient support for agriculture through a separate fund. (18.07.2025)
