2 metre rule.

[colhonk]

Now my ELS has finished, do I still have to have a 2 metre strip growing weeds and rubbish alongside my hedges?

 

[spin cycle]

yes

Yes it's cross compliance. 2m from centre of hedge though if I'm not mistaken.

This is where cross compliance is bad for the environment.

Prior to cross compliance we ploughed & drilled up to the hedge & under trees. Then the combine missed some or couldn't reach it. The remaining corn would feed birds the following winter.

Clever f**kers, all these experts that were consulted on cross compliance in 2004

Sounds just like when they come to re wild a patch of land and chop down all the briars that's been growing wild for years. The educated really are uneducated
