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.
If you would like any assistance with a Basic Payment Scheme application this year, please do not hesitate to contact Laura Negus 01285 883740 laura.negus@butlersherborn.co.uk
