What the Farm and Land Service is

The Farm and Land Service is being developed to:

  • replace the Rural Payments service, improving the design and technology that people use to manage their account with the Rural Payments Agency
  • provide a single place for people to interact with the government about anything to do on their farm or land

At the moment, you can only use the Farm and Land Service to update some of your account information.

Over time, the Farm and Land Service will provide farmers and land owners with access to all the services they need to manage their farm or land. It will be accessed through a single sign in, as a single account, and offer a single menu of choices.

What you'll be able to use the service for in future

In the future people will be able to do a range of tasks including:

  • applying for or managing agri-environment schemes such as the Sustainable Farming Incentive
  • finding new grants and funding opportunities that are relevant to their business
  • managing the business account including who can act for the business
  • managing land
  • tracking when a payment is due and what it is for
  • applying for permissions to carry out activities on their farm or land
