Greening Guidance

DEFRA has published a new Factsheet giving details of the Greening rules.  However, this is not the long-awaited Ministerial announcement on what can count towards Ecological Focus Areas and various other implementation decisions.  This is still expected shortly. 

The latest publication does not therefore really add much to what we already know.  However, it does set all the existing rules out clearly.  The Guidance also provides a full list of the ‘crops’ that a to be counted for Crop Diversification.  It can be accessed via- https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/cap-reform-greening-work-out-what-it-means-for-you
