how many countryside stewardship grants can I have running?

[dannewhouse]

I have an FG2? sheep netting fencing grant running.

I want to apply for some RP15 concrete yard(I have CSF support, do I need planning?) but I want to do some wooden field gates but am I better keeping this separate to the RP15 so that means a third claim.

when I come to want these paying how much can I split them up? as far as I now I can split each into 3 payments except the concrete which they want on 1 application (so you don't just do half the concreting and stop)

I have just read on here that you can only have 1 application per parcel per year? and 1 app per SBI per year.
my fencing is 2023 so that's ok but its on parcels that I want the RP15 and some wooden gates so des that mean I cant claim the gates until I have done and claimed the fencing?

if this is the case I'm going to be better scrapping my 23 fencing and just starting a fresh with absolutely everything on it.

also do FG12 Wooden gates have to have wooden posts or can I use steel? I cant see confirmation either way. the specs only detail the gate and the wings not the posts.
