Several new incentive schemes have been
launched recently to encourage owners to graze with more appropriate stock
for conservation benefits.
Tyr Gofal, the Welsh whole farm agri-environment scheme, has recently
announced a new incentive to encourage the use of rare breeds. Contact your
local CCW office for further details
On SSSIs in England, English Nature will pay up to £60 per hectare as part
of their Traditional Breeds Incentive, a ‘top up’ payment to help promote
the use of animals best suited to graze rougher sorts of pasture.
Further information:
A new booklet explaining the Incentive is available from local English
Nature Offices. |
