Farm View: 2022 is the year to be a BPS early bird
While all your 2022 figures are fresh in your mind after filling in the BPS application, you can use the DAFM’s new payment and stocking rate calculators to predict how the new CAP will treat you in 2023.
The online facility for BPS applications opened on February 16, and by March 28, no fewer than 24,000 early birds had already lodged their applications.
It is a good year to move early, while also taking the time to look ahead to 2023 to assess how the completely new CAP from January 1 next will affect your future farm income.
