The Commission approved a transitional national support programme for farmers in the South of Finland. The programme contains structural aid and income support and will be in force from 2008 to 2013. Article 141 of the Finnish Accession Treaty provides a basis for temporary special support programmes for farmers in Southern Finland. The Commission can authorise such support to help farmers to integrate into Common Agricultural Policy. The Decision provides farmers in Southern Finland with balanced and substantial national support, in addition to normal aids from the CAP. The farmers will get increased support for the improvement of farm structures, in particular investment aid and aid for young farmers. |
