One person received afforestation premium payments in excess of €500,000 in 2015. These payments were made to the farmer in respect of forests planted under previous Forestry Programmes.
With the exception of this person, no other persons, companies or legal entities received annual afforestation premiums in excess of €500,000 in 2015 or 2016.
