UK Government Reopens Revised Sustainable Farming Incentive with Funding Caps and Reforms The UK government has announced the relaunch of its flagship environmental payment programme for farmers, the Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI), after its abrupt closure in March 2025 caused widespread concern across the agricultural sector. Environment Secretary Emma Reynolds confirmed the scheme’s return at the National Farmers' Union (NFU) conference, stating that the revised programme aims to balance environmental protection with food production. The SFI, which replaced EU agricultural subsidies after Brexit, pays farmers in England to carry out environmentally beneficial practices such as soil protection, hedgerow restoration and nature recovery. The updated scheme will be smaller in scope, reducing the number of funded environmental actions from 102 to 71. Individual farm agreements will also be capped at £100,000. Reynolds said these changes are intended to ensure funding is distributed more fairly, after assessments showed that 25% of funds had gone to just 4% of farms. The government plans to prioritize smaller farms and those without existing environmental agreements when applications reopen in June, with other farmers eligible to apply from September. Payments for moorland grazing will increase. The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) said reforms are designed to make the scheme more accessible, particularly to tenant farmers. Farming organizations broadly welcomed the announcement. NFU President Tom Bradshaw said the revised scheme strikes a better balance between simplification and flexibility. However, concerns remain about whether the allocated budget will meet demand and whether long-term funding stability can be guaranteed. Additional government support includes £120 million for research, innovation and advanced agricultural technology, signaling a broader effort to strengthen productivity and resilience in British farming.

This letter headed "Still suffering" appeared in The Yorkshire Post on 26 February 2026. The writer argues that, contrary to what an earlier correspondent maintained, the UK is not perfect on the issue on animal welfare in farming. Membership of the European Union meant UK activists could campaign for better standards across the continent, but post-Brexit trade deals means have to accept cheap imports from much further afield.

Membership of the #EuropeanUnion meant British animal welfare campaigners could fight for higher farming standards across the continent, says a @yorkshirepost.co.uk letter.

Dry colourful crop of quinoa. Tall plants in various greens, yellows, reds and browns. Tall mature trees in the background against a blue sky dotted with clouds.

A red and brown quinoa head bowing to the left. Blurry stalks of it behind. The seeds are bunched up at the top of the plant making the head droop with the weight.

Amongst this crop are dying heads of sunflowers. Leaves on the stalk are still green but the yellow petals are long gone. Cloudy and blue sky behind.

Just had a lovely sunny walk and learnt a thing or two!!
This crop is Quinoa pronounced (KEEN-wah) don’tyouknow!
It’s beautiful and shares the field with sunflowers. This is in West Yorkshire.
