I will respond briefly. It is open to all co-operatives and other approved bodies to import fodder, if they apply to the Department and can satisfy it that they can meet the administrative requirements of the scheme.

In respect of payment under the previous fodder transport scheme, as soon as the co-operatives which retain the data submit the applications there will be no delay on the Department's side.
