Apply for CAP direct payment as coupled income support for ewes and goats
If your farm keeps ewes or goats, you can receive coupled income support for keeping them each year. The payment for ewes and she-goats is granted nationwide per eligible ewe and eligible she-goat.
The payment can only be applied for if at least six ewes or ewe-goats are kept on your farm.
Ewes and she-goats kept on your farm in the period from May 15 to August 15 of the respective year are eligible for support.
In addition, these animals must be identified and registered on the last day of this period - in other words, they must be clearly identifiable, as required by the applicable European regulations and the German Livestock Traffic Ordinance.
If an animal leaves for natural reasons (e.g. death) during this period, the requirement is still considered to be met, provided the animal is quickly replaced by another eligible ewe or goat.

Application deadline
Ewes and goats kept on your farm in the period from May 15 to August 15 of the respective year are eligible for funding.
- Action before the administrative court
- Replacement animals
If an animal for which an application has been made becomes ineligible due to natural circumstances (death due to illness) during the holding period, it can be replaced by another eligible animal that has not yet been applied for ("replacement animal"). Replacement animals can also be purchased. This is subject to immediate notification to the MUKMAV, Unit A/5. However, if the farmer sells an animal applied for, it cannot be replaced by a substitute animal on the farm.
- Boarding or community animal
Under subsidy law, the keeper is the person who owns the animals, even if they are temporarily kept on a boarding farm. The keeper bears the economic risk for the entire period (including the consequences of the death of an animal) and is therefore only eligible to apply for the animal premium. No livestock premium may be claimed for animals for which the keeper is liable under the ViehVerkV but does not bear the economic risk (boarding animals).
- Force majeure and exceptional circumstances
If an animal is eliminated due to force majeure or exceptional circumstances, the farmer retains his entitlement to support for the animals that were eligible for support at the time the force majeure or exceptional circumstances occurred.
