Scottish Convergence cash. At last.

I thought they were subsidising the lfass with some as well, is it around 15 ha for 1 and 23 for 2 grade land, how is some saying 45, lv never looked to see what it's come to for me. Go look It's more than £15 and £23 that's in my account ? A good bit more

I was told they are using it to top up the shortfall in lfa.

It's weighted more to region 2 and 3 land this year I think. So if you have more of that yours might be more than last year. Region 1 here so its less. Don't get me wrong, it's all welcome / what we are due.

 

[Bossfarmer]

how much is it per acre for region 1 this time and how much per calf?

It’s being paid out in exactly the same ratio of regions 1,2 and 3 as last year it is just that the pot is smaller this year as they are using it to top the lfa up to 100%. You would have got the 40% lfa last week.

I don't know how much its topping up the calf payment. But, Today's payment divided by our acres is approx £10ac, region 1

No, just 130 sucklers and youngstock etc.

 

[bobajob]

What top tip said it's nothing to do with the calves.

 

[Bossfarmer]

£10/acre is more than last time which was £6/acre and about £30/calf

 

[Suppin Diesel]

All region 1 here, less than £4 an acre.

 

[Top Tip.]

£9.65 region 1, £17.97 region 2, £9.69 region 3. These are the payment rates for each region.
