So applying for this is worse than doing nowt ?The thing i find intersting is we are a 20% cut this year but if I put all my land into these schemes at the highest rates i cannot get the money to make it back to the amount of the 20% cut therefore who is pocketing the difference?
Won't be doing any of it yet anyway will see where it is in a couple of years
No but even applying for it all for arable and permanent pasture at the highest level as well as 2022 bps, I cannot get back to my 2020 bps levelSo applying for this is worse than doing nowt ?

Same here, who is kidding who £22.00 per hectare £8.90 per acre. Not worth the bother.So applying for this is worse than doing nowt ?
Then pay tax on it .....Same here, who is kidding who £22.00 per hectare £8.90 per acre. Not worth the bother.
Devolved nations different?Surely the SFI is dead in the water now isnt it?
It can only work.... such as it ever will, if the applicant can double or treble up the options on a given parcel of land.Same here, who is kidding who £22.00 per hectare £8.90 per acre. Not worth the bother.
I doubt the tax level to be paid......Then pay tax on it .....
That’s £3200 until the RPA inspector comes to find reasons why you have not complied with a vague scheme that you have signed up to but have no right of appeal on matters of interpretation then DEFRA take the money back that you have probably already spent. Minus the costs of soil testing. What’s your hourly rate for the office work and the keyboard bashing necessary to sign up?Well for those who think it`s not worth the bother, let me apply for you and then you send me the money
we have @ 80 ha, so at £40/ha thats £3200
How long ordinarily in farming does it take to earn that amount, a damn sight longer than applying for SFI
3200 over the experience of the last 20yrs for me isn’t worth the pain of dealing with the rpa.Well for those who think it`s not worth the bother, let me apply for you and then you send me the money
