Stewardship & Grants

As farming subsidies shift under the Agricultural Transition, which replaces previous EU schemes with new UK-based environmental programmes, we offer expert advice to help you adapt. Our experienced team designs and implements environmental schemes that benefit both your business and the environment. 

Stewardship & Grants

Our services include:

  • Grant Scheme applications and management – Assistance with applications and ongoing management for schemes such as the Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI), Countryside Stewardship Mid-Tier and Higher Tier. 
  • Capital Grants – Guidance on funding for farm infrastructure and boundary improvements. 
  • Protected landscapes advice – Support for applications to the Farming in Protected Landscapes (FiPL) programme in National Parks and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. 
  • Landscape Recovery Scheme – Advice on long-term, large-scale and bespoke projects funded through the Landscape Recovery scheme. 
  • Drop-in advice sessions - We also offer informal drop-in sessions at our Rural Advice Office, based at York Auction Centre, Yorkshire's leading multi auction centre.
