If the farmer does not object to the notification within 15 (fifteen) days after the notification has been submitted, the requirements of Clause 5.3 of the Regulation shall be applied accordingly. Objection to the notification is evaluated by a DAIM specialist with the participation of the farmer by conducting an on-site observation, the result is recorded and entered into EKTIS.
