Description
Amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the European Commission extended the exemptions from competition rules that were initially instituted under the State Aid Temporary Framework until 31 December 2021. The level of assistance that individual European Union member states may grant to each agricultural firm was more than doubled, from EUR 100 000 to EUR 225 000 (USD 120 613 to USD 271 379).
