Maybe that's their theory.....It is looking to me like the best way forward for many of us will be to come out of all the schemes and go for maximum production / output.

well sod this nonsense, i m justing putting shed up to keep more stock, More hassle than its worth Elms Tie yourself in knots.Bad enough keeping red tractor happyWhat a load of fudgeing bollllocks.
We could have had a scheme to keep small family and mixed farms viable for the next few decades, instead with have this tosh.
It will be a failure.
Bad farmers, still damaging the land, keeping polluting cows, not taking up ELM's, oh well the treasury will have to take the surplus unspent money offered back, and up the taxes on fuel, fertilizer, cows, etcThat is the idea...

some of the capital grants for infrastructure look attractive to be fairIt all seems such a pitiful amount of money for a lot of rules and record keeping etc. It is looking to me like the best way forward for many of us will be to come out of all the schemes and go for maximum production / output.
Don't suppose they want to make it to simple else every one will be doing it ......some of the capital grants for infrastructure look attractive to be fair
, I think a sub schemes on this type of thing would be more useful/beneficial to everyone (and the local economy/wider community) and achieve alot of their aims without the complication,prescriptive management and paperwork etc TBH
10 feet(3m) around the outside of a 20 acre field is approximately 1 acre,that is 5% of the field area!Buffer strip sizes have increased, hedge buffers to be 4m from center, water buffers 10m wide. That starts to take some serious area off an arable field.
Or small tennant farmer with no entitlementsWhat happens to New Entrants who have no existing eligibility to BPS ?
Taking short term payments for potentially permanent and land devaluing change is extreme folly, it doesn't need to happen, we should stand all make a stand on this point. We have surely learnt the lessons by now! Not a single farmer should sign up and no advisor should allow their client to sign up until that issue is addressed with a legally cast iron guarantee!!!How certain are we that at the end of these schemes term, the land can be reinstated to real farming.
@ajcc may have a view with which to inform that discussion...

I told them repeatedly in court.....āread my lips Natural England, I am not interested in your schemes, I have not enjoyed our relationship, I am a farmer.ā
EIA Regulations 2006 Agriculture is the legislation they will use and tune to āshaft agriculture.ā

Hello,
I have just listened to a podcast featuring a regenerative livestock farming couple, and they were discussing the changes from BPS to the ELM scheme. What are everyone's thoughts on the ELM scheme? Will it make farming fairer? Will it change things for new entrants? Does anyone have any ideas what activities will fit into each of the three tiers? On rented land will it be the land owner or the tenant who will be responsible for meeting the ELM guidelines?
If anyone would be willing to share their thoughts and opinions that would be great!
