Agrarmarkt Austria

Agrarmarkt Austria has been founded as the market regulation office for Austria in 1993. The organisation is responsible for the execution of market regulations (milk quota, licenses, market interventions), the handling of efficiency payments and grant applications, the central market and price reporting and the cattle identification. Moreover, Agrarmarkt is in charge of the handling of important compensation payments for Austrian farmers. AMA transacts most of the market regulation premiums as well as payments from the ecological program ÖPUL and the compensation bonus for farmers in mountain or remote regions.

As the highest bidder of a 2004 organised European-wide tendering adesso Austria GmbH has been chosen the exclusive software development partner of Agrarmarkt and places analysts, project managers as well as Oracle and Java developers. In close cooperation with the AMA IT department adesso Austria realizes the requirements of Agrarmarkt.

All in all, the implemented systems support more than 150 different measures for facilitation. Approximately 10.000 new rules for such demands have to be displayed per annum. Ca. 250.000 Austrian farmers apply for grants per year and by this, more than 800.000 applications are yearly generated by the system.
