Voluntary Coupled Support – Tomatoesfor Processing

The Agriculture and Rural Payments Agency (ARPA) within the Ministry for the Environment, Sustainable Development and Climate Change (MESDC), is once again offering farmers the facility to transfer parcels pertaining to tomatoes for processing. Farmers in the tomatoes for processing sector, who will be transferring or receiving parcels from third parties, will be given the opportunity to transfer a parcel or parcels for claim year 2020 only.

The purpose of this procedure is to reduce excessive bureaucracy for farmers. This is because those fields transferred during this period will be automatically transferred back to the original farmer at the end of the year, without the need for the parties involved to submit another request.

Thus, those interested farmers in the sector of tomatoes for processing are to visit one of the Agriculture and Rural Payments Agency's offices between Monday, 6th January, 2020, and Friday, 24th January, 2020.

It is important that all those who wish to transfer parcels and entitlements bring with them all the necessary documentation so that the transfer can occur without delay.

Moreover, it is being advised that the Basic Payment entitlements are also transferred so as not to lose the related payment as well as the entitlements.

When the transfer of land entitlements is carried out, the farmer should know that the amount of land being transferred must be equivalent to the same amount of entitlements. Moreover, the persons involved in the transfer of parcels and entitlements must be accompanied by their respective spouses. This may be done at one of the following offices:

Malta: Front Office at Pitkali Markets, Ta' Qali, l/o Ħ'Attard.

Gozo: Front Office, Government Experimental Farm, Xewkija.

Opening Hours: Monday to Friday (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and Public Holidays)

Time: Malta between 7.30 a.m. and 3.00 p.m., Gozo between 7.00 a.m. and 2.15 p.m.
