In terms of the requirement for land that has been replaced with a receipt that you have been selling to either Dexia or another supermarket or that you have been a farmer and you are the holder of a produce sellers license”.
The Minister emphasized  that there is “zero political influence and interference” in the programme. Therefore, farmers should not hesitate to apply. They must fill out Expressions of Interest forms and submit same to their extension officer.
