正文(英文) | Countryside Stewardship Facilitation Fund to reopen in December following continued successful uptake. A sixth round of the popular Countryside Stewardship Facilitation Fund has been announced today, giving groups of farmers and landowners in England time to consider making an application ahead of December 2021 when the application window opens. The £2.5 million fund encourages collaboration and knowledge-sharing amongst the farming community. To apply, groups must submit plans showing how they will work together and share knowledge to protect and enhance their local environment, in line with their local Countryside Stewardship priorities. Successful facilitation groups will also offer invaluable training, support and advice to potential applicants for agri-environment schemes. This year’s fund includes support for new environmental priorities such as the improvement of air quality through slurry removal, reduction of ammonia emissions, tree planting and shelters, and managing beaver activity that will offer support and advice for landowners when beavers move onto their land. As highlighted in the latest evaluation report of the Countryside Stewardship Facilitation Fund, published last month by Natural England, the scheme plays a significant role in fostering and strengthening an engaged, collaborative and environmentally aware farming community. Farming Minister Victoria Prentis said:
RPA Chief Executive Paul Caldwell said:
Tony Juniper, Chair of Natural England, said:
To date there have been five rounds of the Countryside Stewardship Facilitation Fund under the current Rural Development Programme for England, funding 139 groups with over 3,800 members. This further round of funding is expected to invest in over 30 facilitation groups. The fund supports the delivery of our ambition for thriving plants and wildlife as part of the 25 Year Environmental Plan, and is a part of Defra’s plans for a renewed agricultural sector, centred around incentivising sustainable farming practices alongside profitable food production. Applications will be invited from December, with a closing date of 19 January 2022. Further information
