Potato growers from Northern Ireland whose incomes have been directly impacted by the pandemic will be eligible for financial aid.

According to a Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs (DAERA) online update, more details of the scheme will be announced later this month. Over 11,500 farmers in Northern Ireland have already benefited from £23.5m made available by DAERA as a contribution to offset the losses incurred by the pandemic. Source - https://www.freshplaza.com
