A clinic to help farmers to fill out their Basic Income Support Scheme (BISS) application will take place in Co. Cavan.
According to the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (DAFM), the clinic will take place at the Kilmore Hotel in Cavan today.
These clinics are particularly useful for farmers who do not have a Farm Advisory System approved advisor to assist them with their application.
The BISS farmer clinics will take place from 10am - 4.30pm and staff from the Department will provide one-to-one support to assist farmers to submit their scheme applications well in advance of the closing date of 15th May 2026.
In total, 16 farmer clinics are scheduled and offer an opportunity for farmers to be supported by department staff in making a range of applications related to area-based support schemes, such as BISS.
