Online application systems open for young farmer supports 

Being the first year of the CAP Strategic Plan, a range of new schemes are being introduced over a relatively short time period. 

The schemes provide key services to farmers adjusting their farming business and providing for support for generational renewal.

Applications can now be made for entitlement transfers and young farmer supports.

Online systems for transferring payment entitlements, applying to the National Reserve (young farmer and new entrant) and Complementary Income Support for Young Farmers (CISYF) are open.
