[QUOTE="steveR, post: 8120123, member: 66976"] Exactly, the Devil is definitely in the Detail. I'll go and see what is said, as there is a dearth of hard info on the website. I too thought £1200/annum is a tough starter, even if the first year is subsidised... Maybe better when spread over a large farm? It feels a bit like the Tree planting offering from STW a few months back, that really did not appeal with totally inadequate funding. I must see how it got on... I think that someone at STW is producing these ideas and chucking them out in teh farming community, and hoping some will work? [I]Severn Trent are looking to plant 622 acres of trees to offset some of the carbon footprint of the Commonwealth Games. I have attached the details. [/I] [LIST] [*][I]Sites over 20 Acres will receive a premium payment of £80 per acre, per year for 10 years. This includes all acres donated, inclusive of the initial 20 acres.
