The Service Center for Land Development and Agricultural Promotion (SLA) is a downstream authority of the Lower Saxony Ministry for Food, Agriculture and Consumer Protection (ML).

history

The SLA is the central technical office of the Lower Saxony agricultural administration and offers its customers a powerful IT infrastructure.

When the Authorities for Geoinformation, Rural Development and Real Estate (GLL) were formed as part of the administrative reform on January 1, 2005, the Lower Saxony state government took on the state-wide tasks assigned to the then Office for Agricultural Structure Hanover (IT tasks and controlling for the state agricultural administration) as "Service center for land development and agricultural support" affiliated to GLL Hannover. The Ministry for Rural Areas, Food, Agriculture and Consumer Protection (ML) was granted a direct, immediate right of access to this part not integrated in the GLL, as the various tasks in the context of the implementation of the EU agricultural reform require more direct control and coordination required the Ministry.

With the state treaty between the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen and the State of Lower Saxony in the area of ​​the two funds, the European Guarantee Fund for Agriculture (EAGF) and the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD), as well as the national funding programs based on this from January 1, 2010, the SLA took over also tasks for the state of Bremen.

The SLA, together with the operational paying agent, has been the first information network in Lower Saxony to have an ISO 27001 certificate based on IT-Grundschutz ( Federal Office for Information Security (BSI)) since 2010 .

In the course of a reform in 2011, the GLL was transferred to the State Office for Geoinformation and Rural Development (LGLN) and the SLA became an independent division within the State Office.

With effect from July 1, 2014, the authority "Service Center Land Development and Agricultural Promotion (SLA)" was established in Hanover and Division 5 "Service Center Land Development and Agricultural Promotion (SLA)" was removed from the LGLN ​​and its previous organizational units and tasks were transferred to the Transfer Authority SLA.

tasks

The work of the SLA enables the allocation and disbursement of around EUR 1 billion annually in funding to rural areas and agriculture in Lower Saxony.

The service center is an IT service provider that forms the link between the specialist ministry and the departments of the specialist administration (offices for regional development) and the agricultural self-administration (Lower Saxony Chamber of Agriculture) in Lower Saxony. It performs software development tasks in cross-departmental project groups. System management for the central IT environment, hotlines for specialist applications, training of users and their technical support are also part of the tasks. For the offices for regional state development, the SLA prepares the land consolidation data for the purpose of the cadastral correction and performs other preliminary services for business processes in land planning procedures. The SLA supports the use of geospatial data in the field of agricultural funding through the further development and maintenance of the GIS-based reference system (digital field block map of Lower Saxony).

The Service Center for Land Development and Agricultural Funding has been developing and maintaining the ANDI (Agricultural Funding Lower Saxony Digital) software since 2009, with which around 97 percent of the 50,000 or more eligible applicants in Lower Saxony applied for funding in 2011. From the application year 2016, a geo-based application was introduced for this purpose, which also comes from the service center and enables the detection of overlapping of the individual field blocks . The resulting experience was incorporated in 2017 in cooperation with the associations and associations involved (Landvolk Niedersachsen, Landwirtschaftskammern).

Internal organization

The SLA is an independent authority with the ML as the supervisory authority. It employs around 190 people from various disciplines in six departments and one staff unit. The SLA has a project control team (PST) as a body for the company-wide control of projects and procedures. Kirsten Kreft is responsible for managing the authorities. The service center has an ISO 27001 certificate based on IT-Grundschutz.
