BPS means cross compliance restrictions on the way I farm which gives government some control and influence over farming activities without having to legislate and pay for enforcement through the courts.
What if anything replaces the controls Govenment have in place enforced by the threat of the recovery of BPS money If I don’t sign up for SFI or any other of the replacements for BPS?
What will I be able to do to suit me rather than what some DEFRA advisor thinks I should do?
The most obvious would be that I could cut hedges whenever I liked having checked there were no nesting birds.
I can maximise productive area.
Anything else DEFRA will lose control of?
