    It's only about 6.70 a ewe.

    So where does the number of ewes come into it ?

    Its based on 7 ewes per hectare up to 30 hectares ie you need minimum of 210 ewes on 30 hectares to get the full amount.

    .

    I still do not understand why people are not getting similar payments when having similar stock and hectares. ?

    When the scheme was first introduced I knew how my payment was calculated but now I have not a clue

    Mine is lowland.Think there are different rates for upland/mountain.

    Was talking to a neighbour last night and he had his payment slip in the wagon,looked at his and his payment was the exact same as mine.

    Here at home and just rooted out my receipt.

    Qualifying land; Hectares paid on Rate per hectare

    Mountain (type) high .00 21.81
    low .00 18.18
    Other 30.00 50.90


    Gross grant 1527.00
    Over decl. .00
    Late area aid .00 under decl. .00 total .00
    Modulation 152.70 financial disp. 37.47 tot. 190.17
    Sheep reduct. .00 cross comp. .00 total .00
    Amount payable pre. recoupments 1336.83
    Total amount payable pre. recoupement 1336.83

    Max hectares 50. Notional Ewes per Hectare 7


    Eg You have 210 ewes then you have 210 / 7 = 30 ( Hectares ) x €50.90

    EG You have 105 Ewes Then you have 105 / 7 =15 ( Hectare ) x €50.90

    Think its max of 30 hectares you will get paid on lowland ground.

    So say 150 ewes on a mixed 50 hectare lowland farm would give;

    150 ewes divided by seven= 21.43 hectares eligible ground at 50.90 per hectare =1090.79 less modulation (109) and financial discipline(26.76) gives a net payment of 955.03.

    No guarantee on the maths but it should be in or around correct.

    Great info. Didn't realise that's how it was calculated. I bet the IFJ will have it on next weeks edition after seeing it here. That's the kind of stuff they should have on it not rehashing the same column the same week every year.
