Countryside Stewardship
The UK government established the Countryside Stewardship to protect the natural environment, by offering farmers and landowners a financial incentive. This will improve aspects including protection and rebuilding of wildlife habitats, the creation of new woodlands, reduction of land and water pollution, and preservation of the natural landscape, with its existing historical features.
This well-established scheme is not a popular as expected. However, in the right circumstances it works well. There are four elements of the Countryside Stewardship:
- 1. Higher Tier – generally you have to be invited to submit
- 2. Mid Tier – A range of over 200 options for including up to £ 120,000 capital grants
- 3. Wildlife Offer – A simplified Mid Tier with fewer options and no capital
- 4. Mid Tier Capital – Can be standalone used alongside Wildlife Offer up to £ 60,000
