The final full rates for the 2000 Sheep Annual Premium Scheme have been set at £10.73 per ewe for premium and £4.08 per ewe for the Less Favoured Area (LFA) supplement.
Producers have already received two advance premium payments last year totalling £6.68 per ewe and an advance LFA supplementary payment of £3.74.
The balance premium payment will be £4.05 per ewe and the LFA supplement £0.34 per ewe.
In England MAFF will start making the balance payments from late April.
