33rd Sitting of the Agriculture, Forestry and Water Management Committee
At the sitting held on 1 October, the Agriculture, Forestry and Water Management Committee considered the state-of-play of agricultural incentives and possible amendments to the law regulating agricultural land.
Bojan Zivkovic, Assistant Head of the Directorate for Agrarian Payments, presented the payments realized this and the previous year. He said that in 2017 the Directorate for Agrarian Payments had paid 12 billion RSD for 54,000 requests submitted and 15 billion RSD for 69,000 requests submitted this year. Zivkovic said that according to estimates the payment of this year’s incentives will require additional five billion RSD due to the payments carried over from the previous year.
Following a debate, the Committee adopted a conclusion on this item on the agenda.
The Committee members went on to discuss possible amendments to the law regulating agricultural land with the representative of the Directorate for Agricultural Land Aleksandra Miceta.
