Environmental Stewardship
Our landscape is dominated by agriculture and it's essential that we farm it well, in a way that produces food for us all but considers future generations. Funded by the government and the European Union, Environmental Stewardship schemes support and financially reward farmers and landowners for managing their land for wildlife.
The benefits are twofold - the farmer or landowner is able to take areas that perform poorly and transform them into new habitat for wildlife with a stable annual income as a reward.
At Maydencroft Land Advisory, we help farmers and landowners interested in joining Environmental Stewardship through applications for Entry Level Scheme (ELS) and Higher Level Scheme (HLS). Our specialist service offers practical support throughout the process to ensure all aspects are considered for a successful and sustainable agreement. This means helping you to make the right decision for your business, the landscape, wildlife habitats and the historic environment.
