Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, whether funding will be made available to the Scottish Government under the Barnett Formula from the Farming Innovation Programme.

The Farming Equipment and Technology Fund, Farming Innovation Programme, the new round of Environmental Land Management Capital Grants, the Farming Collaboration Fund, and the Poultry Support Grant will be funded from Defra’s Spending Review 2025 settlement. Spending Review 2025 also set funding for the Scottish Government reflecting the Barnett Formula for agricultural spending which is devolved. It will be for the Scottish Government to allocate any funding to farmers in Scotland with the funding they have available.
