2015 Annual Environmental Stewardship Claims – Overwintered Stubbles

Natural England have been writing to some Environmental Stewardship agreement holders to inform them that where they have had to include the location of overwintered stubbles in their claim and used the 2014/15 cropping year, this should have been the 2015/16 cropping year.

Therefore agreement holders in this situation must provide the correct information to Natural England by 1st September 2015.

Representations are being made to Natural England to try and prevent the same issue arising for 2016 annual claims. Farmers may not know where their 2016/17 overwintered stubbles will be located when applications need to be submitted in the Spring.
