Using buffer strips and fallow land I have plenty more efa than required but it says efa rules not met. Crop diversification rules are met OK. Anybody finding the same. No under or over declared in the field uses table.

Don't worry you won't be alone!
They are in such a mess, the worst thing is it will take months or years to sort it out.

In the same boat here. Been fined £1500 but everything is right, even after greening inspection I’ve an email to say all is ok! Sent a letter to RPA a month ago, as was advised and still not heard anything back!

Same problem. Last year it was rectified by finding a small undeclared bit, but everything is in order this time and have loads more Efa than needed.
 
Same here, loads more EFA declared than required but still getting NO to the question "is EFA requirement met" told to ignore it and submit but they did say they would put a note on my file to say I had raised concerns about this.

Try regenerating the application.
Did it yesterday and it now says yes.
