The number of beneficiaries of CAP payments in each county broken down by size of payments in respect of the CAP financial year 2019 (16th October 2018 to 5th October 2019) is provided in the attached document.
The information was compilied from the 2019 CAP beneficiaries database which was published on the Department’s website on 29thMay 2020, in accordance with Article 111 of Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 which requires Member States to ensure the annual ex-post publication of all beneficiaries of CAP funding.
The information therefore includes the beneficiaries of all CAP payments so a small number of beneficiaries are not farmers as the CAP also funds programmes such as LEADER and schemes open to other bodies including food companies.
