Conservative — Aldridge-Brownhills

Speaking in the House of Commons on 15 October 2026

Debate

Sustainable Farming Incentive

Contribution

At a time when the Government really should be supporting the producers of our food and the guardians of our countryside, they saw fit to open the new SFI scheme offer and then close it down after just six hours. Will the Minister acknowledge that his Government got this wrong, provide a road map—a forward look for the farmers—detailing what the next scheme will be, give them more notice and assure both farmers and this House that they will have more time next time round?
