Another\u00a0important demand is to simplify the policy and cut bureaucracy to improve uptake of the\u00a0programmes. Despite the fact we called for simplification, the rules are more complicated than\u00a0in the last programming period and extra information is required that could raise costs for\u00a0farmers.
