How much set-aside should a farmer have in 2007?
A. Your set-aside obligation will be determined by the number of set-aside entitlements you hold on 15 May 2007. This will be based upon the number of set-aside entitlements you were allocated adjusted to take account of any transfers of set-aside entitlements that you have undertaken. If you hold set-aside entitlements in more than one English area, you must set aside an equivalent amount of land in those areas. If you are allocated set-aside entitlements in more than one UK region, you must set aside the equivalent amount of land in those regions and follow the appropriate set-aside management conditions for those regions. If you have good reason to believe that the number of set-aside entitlements shown on your latest entitlement statement is not correct, you may choose to set-aside the same number of hectares that you were obligated to set-aside in 2005, adjusted to take account of any transfers of set-aside entitlements that you may have undertaken and any amendments made due to t
