STEWARDSHIP SCHEMES

We are expecting information about the 2021 Stewardship schemes to be published on 9th February.  We understand there are changes to the Water Capital Grant application process and we recommend you contact your CSF officer as soon as possible if you want to apply this year.  The maximum grant for both water capital grants and the Hedgerow and boundary scheme is being increased to £20,000.

The National Parks and AONBs have funding for engagement and events for farmers to discuss the Stewardship Schemes and new ELM scheme.  We are helping with facilitating some of these meetings which will be held after the information about the schemes is published on 9th February.  We will publicise the dates when available.
