Welsh farm support is changing. The Sustainable Farming Scheme is now central to the future of agricultural support in Wales, replacing the historic Basic Payment Scheme over the transition period. For many farm businesses, this creates both administrative pressure and an opportunity to review land management, environmental commitments and long-term business resilience.
Herbert R Thomas can assist with Rural Payments Wales matters, annual submissions, mapping queries, scheme reviews and practical advice on how rural payment changes may affect land occupation, tenancy arrangements, farm income and strategic planning.
Farmers and land managers may need support understanding eligibility, land mapping, habitat areas, common land, tenant arrangements, record keeping, application deadlines and the practical implications of moving from historic BPS claims to the new SFS framework. HRT is well placed to help clients review their holding, identify issues early and prepare the information needed for Rural Payments Wales submissions.
