Hill farmers' livelihoods are at risk from Government delays for support schemes

Hill farmers' livelihoods are at risk from delays to new Government support schemes, experts have warned. These farmers are only receiving 8%, or £39million, of the government's new farming support scheme, the Sustainable Farming Incentive, despite the uplands occupying around 15% of England's area.
The article from Express.co.uk discusses the concerns of hill farmers in the UK regarding potential changes to inheritance tax laws. It highlights that the Government is considering removing agricultural property relief from inheritance tax, which could lead to significant tax bills for farmers when passing down their land. This change is part of a broader environmental policy aimed at rewilding and reducing agricultural land use to meet net zero emissions targets. Critics argue that this policy could devastate rural communities, as farming has been a way of life for generations. The article mentions opposition from farming unions and Conservative MPs, who fear that such tax changes would force many family farms to sell off land or cease operations, potentially leading to a decline in food production and the cultural heritage of farming. The debate centers around balancing environmental goals with the economic and social fabric of rural Britain.
