Grants- Is Your Farm Ready?

The latest round of Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI) grants is now open, giving farmers another chance to secure funding for work that not only benefits the environment but can also improve the long-term productivity of the farm. 

With farm finances under increasing pressure, SFI can provide valuable extra income for carrying out practical improvements such as hedge planting, fencing, grassland management, creating wildlife habitats and improving soil health. Many of these options fit alongside your existing farming practices, making it easier to earn payments while continuing to run a productive business.

The key is choosing the options that work best for your farm. Every holding is different, and with a wide range of actions now available, it's worth taking the time to plan ahead and make the most of the opportunities on offer.

At RT Farming, we know that getting the agreement is only the first step. The real work comes with delivering the projects on the ground, and that's where we can help. Whether it's installing new fencing, planting hedgerows, managing grassland, carrying out habitat creation or providing ongoing land management, we have the experience and equipment to complete the work to a high standard and help you meet the requirements of your SFI agreement.

If you're thinking about applying, or you've already secured funding and need a reliable contractor to carry out the work, we'd be happy to have a chat. We can discuss your plans, explain how we can help and provide a no-obligation quote for any work required. The new SFI scheme offers a real opportunity to invest in your farm while being rewarded for looking after the land.
