The payment of the withheld agricultural subsidies has started

The payment of the withheld agricultural subsidies started on Friday. Czerván György, Minister of State of the Ministry of Agriculture (FM) told MTI, that the 8.4 billion HUF support comes from the crisis reserve of the EU and affects about 65 thousand farmers.

The Minister of State told that those producers are eligible whose direct supports in 2014 were over 2000 euros, so the part above this amount was reduced previously by 1.3 percent.
