Can I designate a temp grass field as fallow next year and if so would that 'reset the clock' on the conversion to perm grass? Ie the year after that it could go back to temp grass for another 4 years?
Probably not as now five fallows in a row and it's classed as PP.
not sure about wether it resets the clock i.e 5yrs temp ley then1 yr fallow not cut whilst 1st july can it be re classified as tg for another 5 yrs as could be useful if didnt want to create pp re any future changes by gove et al, got to remember that fallow counts as arable so affects greening totals
I thought you could plough permanent pasture out anyway if you can demonstrate its "improved" < or some wording like that meaning seed/reseed/over seed/fertiliser are all improvements and in you case showing arable history would mean you'd be fine?
