#2026-386Approval process for France Services Agriculture advisory structures
AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
The decree sets a clear rule for approval requests from advisory and support structures in the France Services Agriculture network: if the regional prefect does not respond within two months after receiving the application, the request is treated as rejected. It also removes an older provision from the Rural and Maritime Fishing Code, while keeping the old rules in place for certain personalized professionalization plans approved before 1 January 2027. The practical effect is mainly administrative: applicants need to track the two-month deadline and should not assume silence means approval.
