The Irish Natura and Hill Farmer Association (INHFA) is looking for a limit of €60,000 in the next CAP, a meeting in Letterkenny, Co Donegal, heard on Friday night last.
Henry O’Donnell, INHFA vice president, told the Irish Farmers Journal the big issue is the convergence of payments in CAP.
“We’re looking for full convergence of payments by the end of the next round of CAP, which would have huge implications for our members.
"We do have a principle around capping. We’re looking for a maximum limit of €60,000.
“We know that when you look at the amount of money that will release it’s quite small, but we feel that there is a principle at stake here and that’s why we’re adamant that €60,000 should be the maximum and there shouldn’t be any loopholes in it to prevent that from happening,” he said.
