【Example of Calculation】 In the case of a fish processing industry (with 35 employees) introducing a filleting machine (automatic three-way filleting machine) + bone removal and weighing device: - Equipment cost (excluding tax): 25,000,000 yen - Subsidy (subsidy rate 1/2): 12,500,000 yen - Actual burden: 12,500,000 yen * The subsidy limit for 35 employees is 30,000,000 yen. The actual subsidy amount will be determined based on the content of the plan and the review. 【Frequently Asked Questions】 Q. Can different machines be used for different fish species? A.
