Farming In Protected Landscapes

NEWS FLASH – Programme extended into a fifth year until March 2026 with additional funding

Protected Landscapes – our National Landscapes and national parks – are special and unique places.

They are living, working landscapes that also support a huge range of habitats and species, and they are enjoyed by millions of people every year. By supporting the farmers, land managers and people who live and work in these areas, we can help protect these exceptional places and support local communities. 

Applications are currently OPEN.

Through the programme, farmers and land managers can be supported to carry out projects that address nature recovery, mitigate the impacts of climate change, provide opportunities for people to discover, enjoy and understand the landscape and cultural heritage, or support nature-friendly, sustainable farm businesses. This is a programme of funding for one-off projects covering these areas of work, not an agri-environment scheme.
