Farmers, who will benefit from free oil, will not be provided with a card, as is happening. The payments, said Deputy Minister of Agriculture Arjan Jaupllari, will be made through the bank account. In cooperation with interest groups, in order to get to know their needs, support schemes are being designed, while there is still no concrete date for the launch of applications. What can be said with certainty at this stage of the process, is that there will be no change in the criteria and the amount of benefit.
There are about 65,000 farmers who benefited from free oil during the past year. At the end of December, Minister Anila Denaj communicated the decision to postpone by 6 months, i.e. until June 2024, the deadline for oil disbursement. Deputy The minister said that there are less than 5 percent of farmers who have not benefited and the extension of the deadline was made in order not to penalize any of them. From the studio of the "Box to Box" show, Jaupllari announced that through the new package, support will also be offered to greenhouses, to make it possible to expand this activity and also increase production.
