To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, how many farmers and land managers successfully applied for capital grants for environmental land management in (a) Glastonbury and Somerton constituency and (b) England in 2024.

Answered by Daniel Zeichner

Between 1 January 2024 and 28 November 2024, there have been 6573 successful applications for Capital Grants under the Environmental Land Management Schemes in England in 2024.

The Rural Payment Agency cannot provide constituency data at this time due to the boundary changes earlier this year.
