The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what proportion of the Sustainable Farming Incentive has been spent on (a) arable farms and (b) livestock farms in 2024-25.

Answered by Daniel Zeichner

We do not require farmers to tell us their farm type (arable, livestock, mixed, etc) so we do not hold information on spend by farm type.
