Yep, they've managed to put a line through a field that has no previous history or purpose.

The light blue should carry on another 6m south and 30m to the west to the hedge. They're just making work for themselves, and will love the avalanche of RLE1's that this type of thing creates.

Brussels wanted the maps updated every 3 years for BPS. Nearly my entire farm got done over the last 2 years. Dozens of RLE1s and sketch maps submitted in response. The last time I had anything redone was Feb 2019.

Will this end now that Brussels aren't paying out for BPS?? It doesn't sound like it. :(

George Useless should be able to take DEFRA, and SEERAD and the rest of them by the scruff of the neck, and tell them to use a bit of common sense.

We will look back with incredulity that so much time was taken and so much stress caused by too many imbeciles trying to measure too accurately. An apology is due to those farmers who have been victimised, often because of mistakes made by arsehole bureaucrats.

And why can't we have an English spellcheck rather than a bloody American version. I can't even say arseholes without it being changed!!!

Yes I can. I've managed to fool it :)
 
Yep, 20 changes here so far, drives me crazy. I've not got into the detail yet but there's new 'notional scrub' and they've mapped pylons in grass fields.

They're just creating themselves more work, cant say any of our changes have actually brought either party any benefits and have just created more hassle.
Drove me absolutely round the bend last year when they decided some of our fields in Mid-Tier agreements either didn't exist or needed a change of parcel number, subsequently bringing all sorts of grief from trying to make the yearly cs claim for fields that "no longer existed"

They're going to have to stop this nonsense once ELMS starts, because its not an annual application, it'll be a multiyear legal agreement. So they won't be able to keep changing all the areas and OS numbers on the fly or all the legal agreements will be invalidated.

Well I logged on to my maps last week and have around 20 map updates. Had a look and they have created new parcels in heaps of fields due to the shadow from hedges and trees, its obvious if you blow the picture up a bit and previous maps looked at. Complete waste of every everybodies time and effort. Even got visability splays on junctions added as parcels x 4 !! Again obvious if you look.

Last remote mapping exercise 2 yrs ago I had every permanent ineligible feature removed, I thought the name would give it away but I had to right and tell them to put them all back.

The problem is every change is automatically accepted without review so it turns into a cluster
 
The remapped fields have messed up our efa hedge claims. Any parcel with a map change seems to have defaulted to include every hedge in that parcel as efa. It also puts them all in as one side and both sides (internal and adjacent). Most should be internal only.
