The president of Cooperativas Agro-alimentarias Extremadura, Angel Pacheco, stressed the importance of these training sessions, which put in direct contact the technical teams of agri-food cooperatives associated with this Extremadura federation with the Directorate General of the CAP.
In addition, he explained that, during the training, all the doubts about the CAP campaign are clarified, the modifications that there are, the adjustments of the application software, etc., since the people who make up the technical teams of the cooperatives are the ones who best know the farms of their cooperative members.
