R&D tax relief for the agriculture sector
R&D tax relief for the agriculture sector
The agriculture and farming sector is constantly changing. Farming operations, for example, are becoming more sophisticated and famers are investing in various innovative projects for their buildings, equipment and new technology to meet the demands of their industry.
However in 2019, HMRC reported that businesses in the Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing industry were under-claiming R&D tax credits. Even though the number of R&D claims from businesses across all sectors is starting to grow, there are still a large number which are missing out on claiming tax relief on R&D projects which they may be entitled to receive.
What is R&D tax relief?
In 2000 the UK government introduced a scheme to encourage scientific and technological innovation. R&D tax credits allow companies that carry out qualifying R&D related to their trade to claim an extra corporation tax deduction for certain qualifying expenditure. The UK government have pledged to run R&D tax credits until 2032.
R&D tax relief claim – Whartons Nurseries
Easy R&D have processed hundreds of R&D tax relief claims since 2015. Wharton’s Nurseries is one of our agriculture clients to have successfully claimed.
Whartons Nurseries are a garden rose powerhouse cultivating 1.5 million plants each year, the largest wholesale grower in the UK. Paul Wharton, Director at Whartons Nurseries, explained about his company’s research and development.
“We had heard of the HMRC R&D tax credit scheme and thought it might apply to us. Through a recommendation by a friend, we started talking to Easy R&D. They quickly helped us shine a light on our business and realise the true extent of the R&D we had been carrying out. But nothing had been claimed back from HMRC.
Easy R&D’s input helped us make a large claim which resulted in a substantial tax repayment from HMRC.
This money is put back into R&D to help us grow the very best garden roses whilst retaining our leading position in the UK market.”
