Sustainable Farming Incentive
Asked by: Lord Grantchester (Labour - Excepted Hereditary) Monday 12th May 2025 Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: To ask His Majesty's Government whether they intend that any future reinterpretation of the Sustainable Farming Incentive will apply universally across all farm types and acreages. Answered by Baroness Hayman of Ullock - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) Now is the right time for a reset of the Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI): supporting farmers, delivering for nature and targeting public funds fairly and effectively towards our priorities for food, farming and nature.
The Government will work with the farming sector to prioritise funding for future years so we can target those who will benefit most before reopening to new applicants.
We will provide further details about the reformed SFI in summer 2025. |
