Government to cut red tape for farmers as they plan for 2021
A rare move from Government which will actually reduce red tape! The ‘three crop rule’ and the other greening requirements of the Basic Payment Scheme to be scrapped with effect from 2021.

Farmers in England are set to benefit from a reduced administrative burden next year, as the government plans to end the need to comply with the EU-delivered so-called greening requirements and begin the move towards our new Environmental Land Management scheme, which will deliver greater benefits for the environment.
