Clawbacks on beef data scheme clarified as deadline looms
Agriculture Minister Simon Coveney confirmed the decision following a meeting with the IFA.
With next Friday’s BDGP applications deadline looming, Mr Coveney sought to clarify issues raised by farming groups in recent weeks. He noted that where data collected is not 100% complete, where there is a minor shortfall in genotyping and heifer replacements, or where the carbon navigator is completed after the deadline, the penalties relate to that portion of the payment only.
