Starting April 9, farmers may apply for area payments in 2015 via the Rural Support Service's Electronic Application System. In order to increase farmers' amount of current assets, the Rural Support Service will provide faster payment of state aid – already in May and not in July as was the original plan.
The Rural Consulting and Education Center said previously that 70% of winter crops in Latvia had been destroyed or badly damaged due to very little snow this past winter.
