Farmers anxious about EU funds

Nationalist MP Philip Mifsud has urged the Malta Environment and Planning Authority chairman to prioritise any pending farm or field improvement applications so farmers could apply for EU funds.

Mr Mifsud said several farmers were concerned they could lose the funding because they did not have the necessary permits in hand.

He has written to chairman Austin Walker reminding him that on November 12, the Rural Affairs Ministry had issued a call for applications for farmers to receive EU assistance.

The EU has made available €13.5 million, of which each farmer can receive a maximum of €75,000. Applications, which must include the development permit, have to be submitted by January 12.
