What you get

You will receive a grant to support fruit growing and horticulture in Denmark. The total amount paid out annually is not specified; it is allocated amongst the individuals and projects selected by the fund. Nor is the amount of the individual grants per application specified. The funds may be used for research, plant breeding and educational work in the fields of horticulture, garden design, technology, economics and history, as well as for study trips abroad.
