€14.3m in support for tillage farmers

The Unharvested Crop Loss Support Scheme announced by Agriculture Minister Charlie McConalogue in November 2023 will provide support of €1.67m to 236 applicants who are eligible under the scheme. 

Support payments worth €14.3m are being made to farmers in the tillage sector. 

Some of the €14.3m funding is being used to support growers who were unable to harvest their cereal crops last year due to wet weather.
