Farm Business Funding: Update on Latest Grants, Schemes and SFI

As farmers in the Southwest move away from Basic Payments, many have benefited from the free support available under the Defra-funded Future Farming Resilience scheme.

With the pace of information change, it is increasingly difficult to keep up with new developments and stay on top of important announcements and updates in agriculture.

This free workshop will cover information on the Expanded SFI and how to apply.

Funding:

This workshop is provided under the Future Farming Resilience Fund, which was funded by Defra to allow us to support farmers and land managers with Agricultural Transition. The support is free for any farmer or land manager currently in receipt of BPS payments, with an SBI and more than 5ha of land.

If you have not previously registered to the FFR programme, please click here for further info and guidance on the free support available.

Eligibility:

This workshop is available to any farmer or land manager in Devon, Somerset, Dorset, Cornwall, or the Isles of Scilly currently in receipt of BPS payments.

To be eligible to participate in the Future Farming Resilience project and receive subsequent 1:1 support or attend further workshops, you will be required to complete a Monitoring Information form. Forms will be provided by your advisor, at a workshop, or emailed to you after an online workshop. Please ensure forms are completed swiftly. Please be aware that BIP may limit further access to specialist workshops or 1:1 advice, if the form is not completed.
