Request Period for Land Transfers

The Agriculture and Rural Payments Agency (ARPA), within the Ministry for Agriculture, Fisheries and Animal Rights (MAFA), is once again offering farmers in the tomatoes for processing sector the possibility to transfer parcels for a year or more as specified in the submitted request.
