Pilot Project
Assumptions:
• Project uses IACS live system
• Users chosen by KRiR – possibly future eFarmer users and farmers’ advisors
• Due to problems caused by current regulations related to electronic signature farmers were obliged to print, sign and send the required form by post. Beginning from the year 2008 Polish law will be modified so electronic signature will be allowed

Conclusion: • It is certain that part of farmers would not manage to fill the
application form via Internet which is why farmers’ advisors and eFarmers role is so important.
•Apart from the application that supports the process of filling the form, simple forms should also be provided. They should be as similar as possible to the paper version.

Plans for the future
Further development of Internet Platform for ARMA customers
• Implementing of e-correspondence platform for external users (Exchange digital signed documents)
• New internet services in respect of:– Beneficiaries data– Application forms (CAP)– Animals notifications– Agriculture advisory
• Data exchange with farmers (and farmers advisors) through Web Services
Now ARMA exchanges data with other institution through web services across PA2A - Administration to Administration Integration Platform (IACS subsystem)
