The approval of the payment of agricultural compensation of more than €2.9 million to 1,046 beneficiaries was approved today by the Council of Ministers, following a proposal by the Ministry of Agriculture, Rural Development and Environment.
These compensation payments relate to the damage caused by the adverse weather conditions that prevailed during the 2021 - 2022 growing season to deciduous, seasonal and other tree crops, as well as to fixed assets, which resulted in a number of farmers being affected. It was therefore considered appropriate and necessary to pay aid through the Revised National Framework. The payment of credits to all beneficiaries is expected to be made within the current month.
At the same time, the Ministry of Agriculture, Rural Development and Environment, with a view to providing immediate relief to the affected farmers, is proceeding to record the damage caused by the adverse weather conditions that prevailed in recent weeks, which affected crops in various regions of Cyprus.
