NI farmers asked to help evaluate EU schemes
The Department of Agriculture and Rural Development has called on the help of local farmers in evaluating future EU-funded schemes.
The Department is asking selected farmers to take part in a telephone interview which will provide valuable feedback to the European Commission on the progress of schemes.
The evaluation of the EU-funded Programmes is a requirement of the European Commission and will involve elements of the NI Programme for Building Sustainable Prosperity, the EU Programme for Peace and Reconciliation and the Rural Development Regulation Plan.
It will assess the impact of the various schemes using indicators provided by the European Commission. These schemes are half way through their life cycle and the feedback provided will assist the EC in assessing the impact of its funding and in planning the future of the schemes through highlighting strengths and weaknesses.
