It's Good News Week

.
At last, after much delay, we have got our 2009 SFP!

Defra/RPA have been saying for several months that most farms had been paid - but a small (but significant) number of farms, mainly in the South Lakes, have been delayed because of "Remote sensing" of the mapping data.

Now all we have to do is fill in the forms for 2010

Except that in 2010 it's called the SPS?

If the CAP (Common Agricultural Policy) of the EU is changed, then the food manufacturers (who currently get most of the money) should lose out in favour of farms like Strickley - who get a meagre SPS.
