The information below shows the number of applicants paid and the amount paid to date to farmers in County Cavan under the 2019 Basic Payment Scheme, the Areas of Natural Constraints Scheme, and the Beef Environmental Efficiency Pilot (BEEP).
Scheme | Number of Applications Paid | Amount Paid |
---|---|---|
BPS | 4,652 | €34,034,033 |
ANC | 4,457 | €10,431,438 |
BEEP | 803 | €672,280 |
Regular payment runs are in place to ensure that, as additional cases become eligible for payment, payment issues to the applicants as soon as possible. I would urge any farmers who have outstanding queries from the Department to respond as soon as possible in order to facilitate payment.
