Sustainable Farming Incentive
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, if she will make an assessment of the potential merits of establishing an Sustainable Farming Incentive option that supports farmers to produce protein crops, including peas and beans.
Answered by Stephen Morgan
The Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI) pays farmers and land managers to deliver actions that support sustainable food production, improve productivity and resilience, and protect the environment. Protein crops are considered within this broader approach, and we are exploring whether further support can be provided within the scope of SFI.
