Potato producers may receive production-related support from 2017
If Brussels accepts, 2017, the potato can enter into the support circle so willingness to produce may increase in Hungary – the Minister of State of the Ministry of Agriculture (FM) told on Thursday in Nyírtelek.
Czerván György emphasized that from next year the potato may be included into the industry supported vegetable category. Currently the step is awaiting for EU approval. Those farmers will be eligible for support who have at least one hectare potato field, and use certified propagation material. Based on the current data, the expected grant amount is approximately 61 000 HUF per hectare. (MTI)
