The article highlights the issue of inequality among farmers participating in eco-schemes, where some receive different premiums despite fulfilling the same commitments. This disparity is due to the continuation of the Confucius Action for older beneficiaries. For example, a farmer from the 3rd call who maintains commitments until 2025 is paid 45.4 euros per hectare for peaches, while those who joined later and missed their commitments last year receive only 35.3 euros per acre.
