What are the % reductions for the BPS for 2021/22/23 years?
Are they still going to pay some of the BPS from 2024 to and including 2027?
Can you still apply for Mid/ Higher Tier next year for a start date in early 2022?
Also another question :
They are talking about paying out a lump sum but will that only be for people that retire from the industry or for people who want to carry on farming but happy to take the one large lump sum and not claim in future years??
No
There is 49 pages of waffle and more waffle and just one page that will tell us what they intend to do and life is far too short to waste reading all that drivel to come across that one page!
Well i had a meeting today with someone very high up and knows everything about these schemes etc and he stated to me that there is no point reading all that waffle as things will change again before they are implemented and untill they set the final rules there is not much point worrying too much!
As he said: The devil is in the detail and when you finally have that then you start looking at your options!
A hell of a lot can and may well change before 2024 including perhaps a new Gov who may well rip up this Elms scheme/ % of BPS payments and start again!
Bit confused here, your "high up" person says to ignore it, but you didn't ask them the questions you are putting to us mere mortals.
49 pages of waffle, why not sit down and read the actual 60 page document at the beginning of the thread all the answers ,or not, are in there.
Which ever way you look at it slipper farmers who let out their land and sit back and do nothing days for subs are over.
