At the professional event organized at the National Agricultural and Food Industry Exhibition and Fair (OMÉK), Feldman Zsolt responsible for Agriculture and Rural Development pointed out that the support cycle until 2014-2020 also brought serious results, and young farmers are the main beneficiaries of area-based support. Farmers up to 40 years of age received 23,000 HUF per hectare in addition to the basic support for 90 hectares. As a result, currently 9,000 young farmers can benefit from this support after a total of 145,000 hectares. (MTI)
