The Cypriot cabinet decided on Tuesday that citrus growers farmers will receive financial support. The council of ministers allocated €100,000 for aid for citrus growers in communities affected by the buffer zone.
According to a written statement, the amount will be distributed as a hectare subsidy of a maximum amount of €25 per decile for the citrus growers who participated in the Optional Linked Support scheme of 2022 and who were not eligible for the plan provided for by a previous cabinet decision on December 20, 2022. This concerned citrus growers throughout land controlled by the republic, and was targeted at professional farmers, as well as non-professionals.
