Advance payment of € 20.3 million to 1,463 farmers for damage to crop production affected by summer fires, announced the Ministries of Finance and Rural Development and Food.
Payment in advance reaches 35% of the initial estimated loss in plant means of production which amounts to 144 euros per olive tree and 96 euros per tree for other tree crops, according to the relevant recommendation of the Government State Aid Committee.
The amount therefore amounts to 50.40 euros per olive tree and 33.60 euros per tree for other tree crops.
It should be noted that the advance payment of the subsidy for damage to plant products:
– It is granted to farmers through ELGA.
– It was calculated on the basis of the available data of ELGA and the initial assessment of losses, while it is specialized per agricultural holding based on the data that have been submitted to the Integrated Control Management System (IACS).
– It concerns farmers in the areas of the prefectures of Arcadia, Attica, Achaia, Evia, Ilia, Laconia, Messinia and Fokidos that were affected by the fires of summer 2021.
– It concerns, at this stage, mainly farmers who have submitted the single aid declaration to the Integrated Control Management System.
As announced by the two ministries, in the next phase will be activated and the relevant grant procedure for non-mainstream farmers who meet the necessary conditions.
In the next stage, according to the procedure, the final assessment of the damages will follow, specialized per agricultural holding, based on autopsies and estimates of ELGA and based on final assessment price, per type of perennial cultivation and severity of the damage. On the basis of this final assessment, the final subsidy of the agricultural holdings for the damages to the crop production means will be determined, which will include the advance given, as well as the first aid granted to the agricultural holdings through the arogi.gov.gr.
