Made a small error on bps, omitted to enter land use code for wfo1, for an area of 0.0013 ha.
Got a letter telling me I'd made error fill in form to correct.
Was it really worth the effort ,postage time . ?????

Had the same, after a misread of my form by the RPA... I just filled their paper in and sent it back, anything for an easy life. Madness.

Why did the NFUs and the Land-Owners Associations just stand back and allow this ridiculous mapping saga to happen.

In Scotland, we have never even had a definition of what constitutes ''Rough grazing'' versus ''Permanent Pasture'' versus ''Rotational grass''.

But the Powers-That-Be are red hot on whether or not I have moved a fence post or have a small but new area of standing water in a field - even though the wild ducks haven't complained.

Why are we such a miserable bunch of wimps????.

My farm has shrunk (apparently) several times over the years. So to me this shows the RPA lot cannot work out areas correctly so have used false sizes over the years.
Hopefully when sale day comes it will magically grow back to its original Ordnance survey size (y)

I rang to complain that the mapping field areas were incorrect, to be told that their satellites, and mapping software cant be wrong.
