Abstract

The article discusses management of land within solar farms, as per the Basic Payment Scheme (BPS) coming into effect in 2015. According to National Farmers' Union (NFU) chief adviser Jonathan Scurlock, there has been confusion about the eligibility of solar farms for BPS and there is an urgent need of Government clarification in this regard. It states that Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) has not provided full details on using solar farms for agriculture purpose.
