Farm Payments 2024

Mines up 7e with no change in anything that I'm aware off

Mines down 31 euro, won't know for sure until the full amount is paid in December.

Down €10.54.

And down another 4 euro for the 2nd part of the eco payment in Dec...13 euro altogether.

why are we all down the few euro. Was it flagged or do we get it back in spring.
it should be going the opposite direction

A significant number off farmers left excluded land last year that should have been included, woods, ponds less than 0.2HA, area of scrub. As more land is included the rate will go down

Yfs comes early December with balancing payments. Eco is a separate payment showing for me in amounts due now

No the Biss is being rebanced between higher and lower payments. The Eco is reduced by extra land being declared. It's amazing the amount of advisors that do not know the rules of the scheme

Help got no anc or biss payment. Department Looking for proof of actively farming land. It's just rough grazing ground for sheep did fencing cut few trees didn't cut any crops as buy hay for feeding. Have flock register up to date sold /bought sheep.

Let he without sin cast the first stone also the mods need to reign in your back seat modding. Just because I have a particular outlook on the benifits of direct payments doesn't mean I'm right or wrong it just means that you don't agree with me...... payments from Europe are the main thing keeping farmers down and controlled by regulations....... what exactly could they do to anyone if nobody was receiving income support from the EU

Sorry how do you know anything about me or where I've worked or what form of agriculture I've been involved in. We have had every enterprise known to man including a veg tunnel for sale on my own farm and I would be in the unique position of having worked on a couple of mountain farms.(apart from mushrooms )For the record this is the biggest **** up to date of the cap payments (milstone on farmers necks) all they are doing is giving much less to strangle all sectors of agriculture. so keep waddling on there good ladeen

Can you explain how its "unfair" that supports are now going to be directed towards more unproductive areas?

Surely the fact that, as you have pointed out, the areas are less productive they could do with the supports more than a productive area?

Is it just greed that has you so bitter over it or can you not make a profit from your farm of productive land without a massive subsidy?

Mine have stayed more or less the same, maybe up a few pound but the most of the lads that are on bad payments are either on very bad land that wasnt fit to carry stock or are still being judged on how the generation before them had the land stocked, 20+ years was far to long to go without re evaluating it.

eco in and spent.

Balancing payment and whenever the acres will arrive.

I get more texts about registering for NPIs than texts to say the money is on its way,

So people outside of the good land of KK don’t work? I’m well aware of how the entitlements were calculated but for people on worse land it wasn’t possible to stock up land because the land can’t handle it. This is land that lads from the east wouldn’t last a year farming on never mind the more than 20 they had to wait for some re distribution of funds.

I’m also not from Connacht or these unproductive areas where everyone’s gone organic and as I said above my payments have more or less stayed as they were even though I have almost doubled the stock numbers since I took over compared to what my father had when I was a teenager and the entitlements were calculated.
Good to hear you’re making a profit from your farm and since you took one look at acres and decided not to go for it your obviously not stuck for the few pound so why begrudge to lads that are?
