The Sustainable Farming Incentive pays you to carry out farming activities in a more environmentally sustainable way so that you can produce food alongside environmental goods and services.
In June 2022, the SFI was launched with 3 standards:
- arable and horticulture soils standard
- improved grassland soils standard
- moorland standard
The 6 new standards to be introduced in 2023 are:
- nutrient management standard
- integrated pest management standard
- hedgerows standard
- arable and horticultural land standard
- improved grassland standard
- low/no input grassland standard
If you already have an SFI agreement, you will be able to add these actions and more land.
