[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 7434661, member: 2119"] There are already many publicly funded organisations and projects presently being done on a limited scale just waiting to go full throttle when ELMS kicks in. River catchment management is just one area where I can see possibilities of farmers being “encouraged” to perhaps sacrifice crop production to creation of wetlands and seasonal flood plain as it was in pre drainage days. Whether it will actually please anybody is yet to be seen. When the public footpath becomes impassable due to flooding or the bridge floating away as happened here then maybe the public won’t be so keen. And I can’t really see how we can hold much more water here without having to stop farming it entirely. But I’m not actually against that idea in principle if you make it worth my while or give me a serious offer. Bit of an aside but we find quite bad fluke problems arise with wet grazing and sheep tread banks badly without a big fenced off margin. All interesting stuff though....till the money runs out.
