[QUOTE="topground, post: 7941393, member: 556"] This extract lifted from an email received yesterday. I understood from Janet Hughes posts that there was no plan to link SFI with farm assurance. If I am correct then either Janet Hughes speak with forked tongue or there are parts of her team publishing stuff with contrary information. What do the collective make of this? Sustainable Farming Incentive pilot Learning Information Pack 2022 What is earned recognition? Earned recognition aims to reduce the burden on agreement holders who are consistently compliant in meeting a farm assurance scheme standard. This could allow our delivery bodies to concentrate their monitoring interventions on non-compliant, higher risk agreement holders. We plan to use the Sustainable Farming Incentive pilot to test if and how earned recognition could operate for the scheme itself in the future. For example, if a farmer is seen as already meeting a farm assurance scheme standard, we might be less likely to visit their farm to monitor their agreement. We’re exploring how a farmer’s membership in existing farm assurance schemes (such as Soil Association or LEAF Marque) might play a role in providing earned recognition for their future Sustainable Farming Incentive agreements. Such membership may help participants prove a strong track record of compliance and could be used to demonstrate their eligibility or compliance for SFI. We’ll keep you updated with more information about our earned recognition studies. [/QUOTE]
