Sustainable Farming Incentive - Pilot Information (including PAYMENT RATES)

[DRC]

Your landlord may be very interested if you "dilapidate" his land.

Are drains landlord or tenants ?

Believe me they aren’t interested . You’ve only got to look at the floods on the FBT land on the estate.

What have I missed ? Must be able to get to 10 ?

Possibly expand on No.4

It unfairly favours large quangos and ersatz Charities such as NT and RSPB, who alread receive other monies and support for their land based activities.

Add food security to #8

 

[holwellcourtfarm]

No 8 is a point well made.

 

[steveR]

Add food security to #8

Nah, make it a totally separate section. It is an excellent point, that should be reinforced.

Farming today this morning, ELMS trial, three people, a farmer and two advisors, talking about moving a fence, nobody seemed quite clear to what end, you could almost hear the desperation in their voices, searching to make sense of it all. I felt sorry for them. Is this how it is going to be ? Thousands of advisors swallowing up all of the money, trying to find deckchairs to shuffle ?

Perhaps there should be a clause limiting any advisers to no more than £10 hourly rate to be fair to the farmers earning even less.....
