Last call for missing applicants

AGRICULTURE and Food Minister Mary Coughlan has announced a further opportunity for farmers to make an application to the 2005 National Reserve section of the Single Farm Payment Scheme.

Some farmers who may be eligible for Single Farm Payment entitlements from the National Reserve have not yet submitted applications.

The Minister said she had particular concern about farmers applying under category B (investments in production capacity) and those applying under category C (conversion of production).
