The Regional Government opened a second phase of pre-candidature to the communitarian aids to attribute in 2008 to the import of reproductive animals for improvement of the Azorean effective cattle, which makes available a total of 895 rights.

The term for the new pre-candidature occurs from Monday, being extended up to the 21st, as it establishes a dispatch of the regional secretariat for Agriculture and Forestry.

Its opening has to do with the fact of in a first pre-candidature phase to the aids for this year, in amounts that vary between the 110 and 500 euros per animal, not having allowed the attribution of all the established rights.

The Community support to the import by the Azorean farmers of reproductive animals is fitted in the regulation that establishes specific measures in the agricultural power on behalf of the outermost regions of European Union.
