Countryside Productivity Small Grant scheme

The RDPE Countryside Productivity Small Grant scheme provides funding for farmers to purchase equipment to improve the productivity of their farm. The scheme is different to other parts of the Countryside Productivity scheme as it uses an online application process and is targeted at supporting investment for specific pieces of agricultural equipment.

Who can apply

Farmers (including livestock, dairy, arable and horticultural sectors) can apply for this grant. Please read the handbook on the website through the link below to find out more. This scheme is only open to farmers based in England.

The grants are only available for a limited time and applications must be submitted by midday on 14 March 2018.
