Speaking in the House of Lords on 23 April 2026

Debate

Sustainable Farming Incentive: Flood Prevention and Drought Resilience

Contribution

As I mentioned in my initial response, the window for all applications will open in September. We are also trying to give a bit more stability around the SFI. The aim is to completely minimise any changes from now onwards, because farmers need stability to support long-term planning. Having said that, there may be changes because we have targets that we want to reach and outcomes that we want to see, but the right reverend Prelate makes a good point.
