As it says, I know you can claim GS15 and GS4 together but can you claim GS15 in CS and LIG1 on sfi, given that LIG1 and GS4 are broadly the same and the same payment rate. THe helpline has given me 3 answers - No you cant, its double funding (doesnt make sense) yes you can because LIG1 and GS4...

Well what did they expect by removing BPS at short notice with an intense taper? an industry that the country depends on to live literally and they totally changed its financial landscape at short notice with no advance planning or details - and they didnt just hire another 50 call centre staff...

As it says really, Ive been trying to get through to the RPA for nearly 3 weeks now with some technical queries, but the line always chruns out the old Covid bull of "exeptional times" and high call volumes, then puts you through to the call back thing. Ive been asking for a call back for 3...

unfortunatly if the fbt is ending naturally then staying put basically removes all your avenues. Have you gone above the local bods heads and contacted the higher ups? Trying to argue the case for maybe some form of Regenerative ag? Sadly i dont think their is a future for conventional...

thats similar -saw a mint set up that could of supported a family and a worker - 80 sucklers and 500 ewes, good soil and even unused grazing right. the nt bods wanted 20 rare breed cows and 200 sheep and lots of wide margins - breed choices designed to ruin you.... their understanding of the...

I think £2 a tonne is hope money - they're unlikely to give you more than the land is worth or they would just buy their own elsewhere - and they won't budge. A realistic amount would be between 50p-£1 a ton at the moment as theirs alot of recycliig operations using up inert demoliition fill -...

jesus £500 just doesnt cover the ball ache of a bride let alone two!

i have fields with great views and get this from locals at least once a year sometimes more - One its bloody inconvinient and it has to be when the field isnt in use - so basically not during hay growing (march - July) and its needed for grazing after, so any compensation starts at lost crop...

Make sure you get your accountant to sort it. Other things to look out for: if your still farming it, especially open ended; SDLT liability can be triggered on a 30 year lease very easily (it was in my case) for me - read my previous thread on BNG - but basically Lump sum upfront, then 30...

Yes because it's following DEFRAs own statutory metric for doing the work and as I will be farming it for forage still the forage value is nominally offset against the payment due. Only works if the land is still producing an agricultural output.

It's framed as a tiny amount for the land and I've invoiced for services provided and yet to be, basicly structurered as an advance payment

you can have whatever you want - In my case the whole amount upfront and £1 a year after that - because i dont trust that BNG will survive in its current form.

Not quite but as its a S106 - it is part of the planning persmission so if it is breached or not done, then the planning is no longer valid. The e legal structure of the development would usually yes, be structured to leave the liability with the development in the event the developer is no...

I agree as the customer it isnt cheap - but for the busines £85 is quite possibly less than the cost, the arbitary line - i see your point, it doesnt just jump at a single point on the map and that needs addressing - but changing couriers part way is an absolute liability nightmare and is simply...

the menzies thing does look interesting actually! Yes i agree the shipping is painful, but in all honesty £85 is cheap if its a single drop and your a 100 mile out from the last drop for a courrier - this is the issue I had - also the highlands are not quick to travel thru, so alot of drivers...

SO as someone who has and does sell things online and has had the fun of Scottish shipping charges (including shipping firms coming back AFTER delivering to someone wanting more). The following is if your a consumer and the Battery was not to be used for self employment for business purposes...

an interesting one for BNG - In my agreement my solicitor inserted a clause that at the end of the 30year period - the land is to be returned to me free of all and any encumbrance entered into that it was not already "held over or bound by" on the 1st jan 2023, and that the council (s106 auth)...

not quite the legal structure tends to attach liability to the development - See myprevious thread on biodiversity from last year for a detailed explaination.

where did you get this £900 an hectare payment rate? I did the first offset in yorkshire - their is no set payment rate and it can vary wildly - from £150 to £2000 and will depend on the land, the actions taken and the upfront baloon payment - the vast majority will be lower than £500 a year...

ive noticed these guys tend to be a bit blunter and carry a clout with the courdroy agents thats hard to pin down..... but none of the fluffy legalese language - just straightforward blunt assesment. Helps if your a regular at the mart you instruct.
