Agriculture: Land
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what data the Rural Payments Agency holds on the (a) area and (b) value of (i) farms and (ii) farmland at a (A) hereditament and (B) local authority level.
Answered by Daniel Zeichner
The Rural Payments Agency (RPA) does not hold data at hereditament level, or any data on values of farms or farmland.
It does hold data on areas of land for businesses registered with the RPA and associated agricultural land, i.e. land registered as Arable, Pasture and Permanent Crops.
