The Municipal spokesperson Citizen-Yecla, Antonio Puche, says the Ministry of Agriculture has changed the options for managing the CAP subsidies adversely affect a large number of small farmers yeclanos.

Yecla, Wednesday 17 February-It is understood by many farmers in our village, the Ministry has submitted, with respect to CAP aid, the following note: "District Agricultural Office informs yecla as basic payment order 2016 you can not make aid in OCA and must find a partner to realize it entity that does not meet the condition of the small farmer. for more information, stop by the district agricultural office yecla ".

Antonio Puche "backfires a Regional Office is enabled at the same time were sent to private entities for the management of aid, such as financial or trade union organizations. In the first case, they say that only dealt with any of its customers, and the second necessary join ".

Many of these farmers found with surprise that they are considered "major producers" because they charge more than € 1250 in aid, so they have no right to be cared for by the local OCA, being forced to move to the town of Jumilla if they seek union option to have more of them.

The affected state that for more than 20 years these procedures were performed at City Hall, but with the new rules is left in private hands to a large number of small farmers with small holdings to supplement their economy.

Puche wonders "how can collect 1,300 euros and have 6 ha of dry land is considered one large farmer. Almost every year, either by drought or by the harmful effects of hail, crop failures are common, despite promises of aid, such as the hail, yet to charge today. is this the new policy of the Ministry of Ms. Cacho?

We confirm these farmers in neighboring communities like Valencia, these problems do not occur and therefore victims der blatant discrimination they feel.

Antonio Puche states that "the Minister has strong homing instinct to walk through the villages to say a few things that later turn out to be the opposite. You should worry more about agriculture and part-time farmers who practice primarily as subsistence support, so not have to be forced to leave increasingly abandoned plots. "

Many of the farmers surveyed have expressed outrage at the findings made by the Minister of Agriculture in local media, which claimed that farmers would be fully available office Yecla, and now "we are doomed to fall into private hands, while toil away 150 to 200 € and lose the day with the movement. "

Antonio Puche "it is unacceptable to charge these farmers with new unnecessary costs, since it would be very easy for technicians from other offices promptly occassionally these needs. This denotes a reprehensible lack of political will or negligence on the part of Ms. . Cachá for routine business easy fix ".

Also, Puche requires the Minister to rectify immediately, "as it is still time to fulfill the promise given to farmers to make all the procedures of the Ministry in the city of Yecla, as preached days ago and as They do neighboring communities, showing more concern for all farmers, regardless. "
