What does your business look like post BPS payments?

Provided by

AHDB is a statutory levy board whose purpose is to inspire our farmers, growers and industry to succeed in a rapidly changing world.

This basic tool can be used to simply calculate how BPS payment reductions in England, that are due to start in 2021, will impact your farm business.

Simply enter your 2020 payment (2019 if not received 2020 payment) amount and the calculator will display how reductions are likely to look compared to the relative total amount of BPS your business received in 2020. 

“I wanted a quick and visual way to show the impact BPS reductions would have. The AHDB tool did just that and is simple to use. Dad couldn’t quite believe the numbers until he saw them on the graph, which has supported a few serious conversations about how we keep an eye on the business side of farming going forward.” 

Edward Earnshaw, Gloucestershire and Leicestershire

The calculator currently only considers the BPS payment in its current form and does not take into account any implementation of ELM, as well as existing payments schemes, such as countryside stewardship, or the new payment system due to roll out through the agricultural transition period.
