Complementary Redistributive Income Support for Sustainability (CRISS) is a new scheme that is often referred to as “front loading”.
It is designed to redistribute CAP funds from larger farms to medium and smaller sized farms.
CRISS is paid to all active farmers on their first 30 hectares.
Applicants must hold at least one BISS payment entitlement or part thereof to receive payment under CRISS.
Those participating in CRISS are required to:
1. Submit a Basic Income Support for Sustainability (BISS) Scheme application, declaring their farmland located within the jurisdiction of Ireland and apply for CRISSS
2. Be entitled to payment under BISS and hold at least 1 payment entitlement or part there of
3. Meet the definition of an “active farmer”
The payment rate depends on uptake but is likely to be in the region of €40 - €43 per hectare. It will be paid on the first 30 hectares. Payments are not linked to the number of entitlements held by the applicant.
You apply for CRISS as part of the Basic Income Support for Sustainability (BISS) application.
A farmer may submit their own application in conjunction with their BISS application, if they so wish, or they can employ a FAS approved advisor to do so on their behalf.
