Basic Payment Scheme Applications 2022

The Rural Payments Agency (RPA) confirmed last week that the Rural Payments service is now available for transferring land and entitlements online, in preparation for this year’s Basic Payment Scheme (BPS) applications.
The BPS application window is due to open online on the 15th March and the 2022 application deadline closes at midnight on 16th May. This year will be the second year of BPS progressive reductions, as part of the phasing out of Direct Payments to 2027.
