Probe launched into agriculture subsidies

Photo: BGNES

The “Agriculture” Fund is launching on-site inspections of applications submitted for direct payments during campaign 2021. The inspections will be of land and livestock declared under different schemes and measures, for which applications for assistance have been submitted.

The control mechanisms even before the payment of European subsidies are a factor reducing possible fraud down to a minimum. Some of the inspections of the areas for which assistance applications have been submitted are being done remotely, the “Agriculture” Fund specifies. For this method to be applied, very high resolution images are used. The images are taken every year from satellite platforms under the auspices of the European Commission research centre.
