EU asks refund for over 400 MN Euro inadequately spent in agriculture - by de Radu Rizea

Several states in the European Union will have to pay back to the European Commission some 410.3 unduly spent on illegal agriculture subsidies, BBC and Forbes announced on Thursday.

The EU also announced that signs of fraud were found, as well as problems with citric fruits processing.
