[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 6345378, member: 2119"] I'm sorry that many farmers are struggling due to delays by NE especially if they have no option but to join these schemes, but personally, since the end of my ELS I have had as little to do with NE or any of their schemes as possible for the very reasons highlighted by this thread. Sadly you just can't rely on them or the RPA so better not get involved with them as far as is possible. Having a big portion of my BP held back for two years, but paid up eventually due to their error was enough to make sure I was never reliant on them again for cashflow. It doesn't bode well for the new greening and public goods agenda, but again I want as little to do with that as possible. I have also found that ditching the ELS margins, the inane rules, undersown Spring barley etc has made my life ten times easier and more profitable. I don't think the hassle and loss of focus on clean and tidy production was ever worth the paltry £2000 p.a. we received for making our 200 acres quite untidy. [/QUOTE]
