There are currently 1,676 farmers in REPS in North Tipperary who will be eligible for payments in 2010. In addition, 39 farmers applied for REPS after the 2009 deadline of 15 May and before the scheme was closed to new applicants in July 2009. If their applications are valid, these farmers will begin their REPS 4 contracts in 2010 and will also be eligible for payment.
