When he was declared redundant in the army, Milenko Nedic turned to agriculture. The moment he had to decide what to do next, he remembered his farming parents. Crises couldn’t do anything to them, and now they can’t harm him either. The beginning was difficult, including bank loans and high interest rates. Then the opportunity arose to apply for IPARD calls.“In 2011, when the first Midas programme came out, I applied for one part of the mechanisation. It was for a tractor and some of its attachments. At that time, it was said that it could not be obtained, that it was impossible, that it was difficult to pass it and so on. However, I passed all those controls, and I already had about fifteen cows. I got the mechanisation and that pushed me to move forward,” says Milenko Nedic.
