Have received it yesterday, followed the link to the reduction calculator and it doesn't appear to have been updated for the 2024 year, it only shows reductions for 21,22,23 years.
Have I missed something?

I thought the same although I have only the delinked statement for a farm down the road that I did the SFP for an old chap who has subsequently died and the executors claimed the 'ending farming lump sum' payment a year ago so I don't suppose that they have got joined up thinking, again.

Must have just been sent to everyone on the 2021 claim list

My understanding was that we would receive an email with the delinked statement showing what we will receive for the next 3 years.
The calculator is not relevant after this year.ļ

Will just wait to see what I get ..... I will know then !
As a guide the next 3 years payments will in total be about the same as your single payment in 2020... it may arrive as 6 equal amounts (2 payments per year) or it might be front loaded with more than 33% next year and less than 33% in the last year.. they haven't decided...

Then factor in inflation has eroded the value like a stick of chalk in a bath of hydrochloric acid and what is left might be enough to fund a tank of diesel. :cautious:

so, about £28 ish /acre for each of 3 years based on your historic claim front loaded with more in the first year and very little in the third . Am i way out ?? in what others think it is how its going to workout.?

That is what I thought, HMG will have to prepare themselves for me not recirculating any of that into the Income Tax department.

It is a sort of saving club that pig farmers pay into once every 5 years and then get back in the next 2 years without interest.

Not very fair really, I would be better off buying premium bonds every 5 years and then cashing them in.
we jest, but is it such a bad idea the way things are, weather ,politics ,defra ,rt ,noroso ,hgca , cop, et al oh and not forgetting the new van ,( no not the one to drive ) ho ho

Tried working payments out the other day. It’s mad how complicated it is.

Year 1: Full BPS payment

Year 2: Full payment multiplied by different reductions depending on which amounts fall into categories (like income tax thresholds)

Years 5-7: Take the un-discounted amounts used to calculate the previous three years. Add together and divide by three. Then multiply by reductions as per Years 2/3/4.

Some of the above years are also then divided by two before being paid into the bank account.

I’m pretty sure every farm business will receive a maximum £1500 split into two payments of £750 in the final payment year.

“What payments will the 1000ha farmer receive between 2020 and 2027 and when will he receive them?” could make for an hour long GCSE maths question.
