I keep hearing of payments for this, is it something that is part of a stewardship scheme, something that's coming in with ELMS or is there a stand alone payment?

Stewardship overwinter stubble £84 Per ha
cannot be on land with risk of runoff for stewardship

I will apply next time fo no overwinter stubble
but will apply for over winter cover crops where spring crops are planned which pays £114 Per ha
