[QUOTE="Jackov Altraids, post: 7767149, member: 3566"] I think ELMS in its current form will have a perverse impact on UK agriculture which will be detrimental to all. It wrongly validates and aids those who want to make land unproductive while not improving habitats for wildlife. This is compounded by the drive to plant trees in some dream that it helps counteract fossil fuel emissions. By valuing farmland so low, it will create 2 main reactions. It will drive intensification to increase returns to cover the lost revenue of BPS or, It puts large farms in a very competitive situation to offer better value to use lands not put in ELMS so they they can achieve their own requirements. I've already had a discussion where they foresee offering me more than ELMS to take slurry with no hassle, forms, claims or checks. I've always been low input pasture but the future is looking greener!! :ROFLMAO: [/QUOTE]
