Details

Temporary support is available for farmers in 2024 due to wet weather. Read about temporary adjustments in the guidance for agreement holders at section 9.3.

The Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI) scheme information for SFI 2022 standards agreements contains the requirements you must follow if you’ve entered into an SFI 2022 standards agreement.

The SFI standards agreement terms and conditions have been updated (June 2023 version). These allow us to:

  • pay you the new SFI management payment
  • temporarily adjust your SFI standards agreement if we identify factors which may temporarily impact your ability to complete the actions in your agreement, such as adverse weather conditions

We’ll ask you to accept the updated SFI standards agreement terms and conditions. Until then, the existing SFI standards agreement terms and conditions (May 2022 version) will continue to apply to your agreement.
