is anyone filling one in at the moment.

In the section on the application requiring the hectarages of each habitat to be managed, are you entering the data from the pre-populated EIMMap or adding in areas they have not included in their data ?

Add the areas on the form then colour in the areas on the map? I think, I only did the mid tier after hours of head scratching & losing the will to live , then suddenly the forms made sense & wished I'd put more in :unsure:

I was reading through the higher level handbook the other night and it looked an absolute nightmare. Hope we can keep rolling ours on for a few more years yet. Then who knows!

Decided on your next move yet, not rolling over I suspect?

Simplified mid tier?
Not rolling over - we did have the opportunity - as we have a big bypass development so wouldn't be able to keep all the current options at the same acreage as it will be under a bulldozer.

Probably Mid Tier, looking at it now, as might do a fair few capital options as well, just as soon as I have put all our hedges back on the maps that they've got rid of because they are underneath trees, if I request a pack before correcting that then the maps will be wrong. Bloody hassle.

Oh those maps.... :unsure:

I imagine putting them right will be a mission at the moment, as in good times its a PITA! Good luck.

Still mulling my options for next year. Roll over or Cease and go for simplified Mid Tier...
 
If they pay the interim for 2019 as reported yesterday then if applying carryon and decide when you get the offer
by then we will know if they keep paying with in the time frame of June following
it pays better than growing crops although later payments
