Zzr kronor – mrirw. constructive meeting

The management of the Ministry of Agriculture wants to show the willingness to dialog with agricultural organisations. There was a visit to Medicine, where people were talking to the Cheated Village, talks with the National Council of Agricultural Chambers, the Polish Union of Horse Breeders, OPZZ Farmers and Agricultural Organisations. On 3 January, talks were besides held with the CORONA (Professional Union of Agriculture “Korona”).

Especially these last talks are worth noting, for the gathering was very specific. Union Plenipotentiary Dr Daniel Alain Korona made detailed requests and proposals for solutions, in particular:

– support by the Ministry of Action for the fresh Lesser Poland agricultural exchange, which would execute a much wider scope of services than the current stock exchange in Rybitwa (storage of goods, sorting and packing, wholesale and retail trade, food certification, tiny processing, training services, e-business, place for investment activity).

– Compensation for lost income from the sale of pigs for the first 4th of 2022 in connection with ASF. The union made a proposal to sanitize the situation of a violation of the law, which was to amend the government in January 2022 without any public consultation, introducing a retroactive law whereby pigs farmers were deprived of compensation for lost income for the first 4th of 2022. Without denying the right to make changes to legal provisions, it must not be in breach of constitutional principles including the lex retro non agit legal principle. Estimated cost approx. PLN 55 million

– Support for pigs breeders in the form of a renewal of the Locha Plus programme in 2024, estimated cost up to PLN 500 million. For more than 20 years, the number of pig holdings and pig herds has been steadily decreasing. The introduction of Locha Plus enabled this trend to be suppressed. At the request of the Union, it was reintroduced in 2023. However, these benefits are not sufficient. Hence the request to renew the Locha Plus programme in 2024 as an component of support for pig farming

– Support for purchasing companies through subsidies for the sale of rape in 2022/23, due to the fall in prices caused by the war and imports of Ukrainian rape. Buyers in 2022/23 suffered the biggest losses on rape trade, which, like corn, besides requires drying. In 2023, a programme was launched to support purchasing companies concerning maize, but not rape. Therefore, the proposal to remedy this situation. The first task in this area has been somewhat modified and the current estimated cost will be around PLN 200 million.

In the above 3 cases, the CORON Council prepared the applicable draft regulations together with the justification and assessment of the effects of the regulation.

"The question of aid for the transport of cereals and rape seed to Baltic ports on 21 April 2022, the government issued a regulation and notified the European Commission. In view of the silence of the Commission and the inactivity of the Polish government, the CORONA Group addressed the committee in August and November 2023 to velocity up the decision on transport subsidies and maize. The case of corn subsidies has been positively settled, but transport subsidies have not been settled. The Union Trade Commissioner Valdis Dombrovskis informed the Director-General liable for competition erstwhile again. The Union asked the Ministry for support to get a Commission decision.

– Interpretations of the Regulation on aid for rape for farmers in the case of forward sales dependent on the MATIF exchange. ARiMR both in Podlasie and Pomerania issued decisions refusing subsidies, recognising as a point of sale the transportation date, the first invoice, alternatively than the minute of final settlement that occurred many months after delivery. The Union demands designation that the sale took place with the final settlement, confirmation of the corrective invoice, which would enable farmers to benefit from the support provided for in the Regulation. Despite the promises made in August and October, the issue has not yet been resolved.

– Recognising that farmers operating agricultural holdings and a purchasing company at the same time are entitled to the support provided for by the Regulation. ARiMR, in its refusal to adopt decisions, states that sales cannot be referred to erstwhile an agricultural maker sells cereals as part of its one-man business activity, but besides acts as a buyer and seller. The Union considers this explanation to be incorrect, due to the static provisions of REGON, the existing position of the taxation authorities not contesting specified transactions, and looks forward to changing the explanation in this regard.

– the issue of the backlog in the handling of applications by the ARiMR in relation to the excessive support programmes. The union besides highlighted the request for a fresh regulation of the Council of Ministers. on the detailed scope and means of implementing certain tasks of the Agency for Restructuring and Modernisation of Agriculture. The current regulation of 27 January 2015 has already been amended 58 times, there is no harmonised version and no 1 is able to realize these provisions.

– In addition, the issue of harm caused by bison in Podlasie and VAT on fertilisers was raised. These second cases will be the subject of meetings with the applicable ministries in cooperation with the Ministry of Agriculture.

The Ministry of Agriculture initially responded positively to most of the requests, and the draft regulations prepared by the Union on compensation for lost income for the 1st 4th of 2022 in relation to the ASF, the Locha Plus programme and aid to the purchasing companies which suffered a failure on rape in 2022/23 would be subject to further and urgent action by the Ministry.

But it was the first cats, neither organization was afraid about the dispute, although as we learned about the funds for the promotion of agri-food products, there was a discrepancy. The union demands the liquidation of these funds as an unnecessary tribute, and the ministry is in favour of better spending money from funds. However, the parties (President of the Union of Alina Ojdan and Deputy Minister of National Affairs) assessed the gathering as good.
