Surely the aim of this is to provide bird food for one season per year?I emailed the RPA and have now had confirmation that you cannot plant crops such as s barley/potatoes/maize in the spring following AHL2 as it is a full year option.
I think this is a real shame as it rules out this option for tens of thousands of hectares imo.
I think the full year is beyond the aims of the 'winter bird food' requirement but that's what they have said.
