The new and improved Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI) has started to accept applications, the Secretary of State for Food and Farming has confirmed.

The 2023 offer has been expanded and made more flexible in response to farmer feedback and now offers more than twice as many new SFI actions as originally planned to improve food security, and biodiversity such as hedgerows and farmland wildlife.

Secretary of State for Food and Farming Thérèse Coffey said: “I have been delighted by the registrations of interest from farmers across a diverse range of farm types in our new Sustainable Farming Incentive scheme. It highlights how the SFI has something on offer for every type of farmer.”
