Ni, upland sub restored,

[Greythundercloudys]

Just read that guys in Northern Ireland upland farms are to get a kinda lfsaa payments, it was cut two years ago, upland farms cannot manage without some kinda payment, at least you'll get it for a couple of years.

Very few places reporting this so far.

I still cannot work out if the vote was 'advisory' or actually orders the Minister / Department to restore the old Area of Natural Constraint subsidy (which was formerly called Less Favoured Areas Compensatory Allowance).

NI Assembly votes to restore upland farm payment

The payment compensates upland farmers for operating on poor ground and in difficult weather.
