Agricultural Protection Fund changes: annual payments and expanded farmer compensation

The act modifies the Agricultural Protection Fund rules, introducing annual instead of quarterly payments for purchasing entities. Farmers and their groups gain broader rights to compensation for unpaid products, with more transparent procedures.
Key points
Purchasing entities will pay into the Fund once a year by February 14, instead of quarterly.
Small payments below a set threshold carry over to the next year – no declaration required.
Compensation for unpaid products now extends to farmer groups, cooperatives, and industry organizations, not just individual farmers.
Compensation interrupts the statute of limitations on claims from the date of the decision.
Detailed rules for determining compensation amounts and required documentation introduced.
National Support Centre for Agriculture takes over claims after compensation is paid.
Financial penalties apply for delays in submitting lists and informing farmers.
