Due to Coronavirus, the annual claim deadline for submitting both BPS claims and agri-environment annual revenue claims into the RPA has been extended by one month, from the 15 May to the 15 June.
As the 15 June approaches, the NFU's expert advisers have put together a briefing to outline any important information that NFU members need to be aware of ahead of submitting their annual claims.
Please be aware, while the deadline date is the 15 June, the NFU only supported the RPA to implement maximum flexibilities given the pandemic. Therefore we continue to strongly encourage members to submit claims as early as they are able, to ease pressure on the RPA further down the line which may lead to payment implications come December.
