Not sure which grants your land qualifies for? A Baseline Report gives you a clear view of what’s possible—so you can focus on schemes that fit, avoid wasted time, and apply with confidence.
If you’ve ever typed “grants for farmers” or “environmental funding UK” into a search bar, you’ll know the feeling—hundreds of pages, dozens of acronyms, and no clear path through. With so many schemes on offer—SFI, CS, EWCO, BNG—it’s hard to tell what fits your land, and what’s just noise.
That’s why the question isn’t what’s available—it’s what’s right for your land.
Most government schemes don’t just pay for good intentions. They’re designed to reward very specific outcomes, depending on the location, condition, and characteristics of your land.
For instance, a well-drained arable field might be a great fit for herbal leys under SFI—but completely unsuitable for woodland creation. A wet, low-lying patch could be perfect for wet grassland restoration or pond creation, but ruled out of certain schemes due to flood risk or access issues. Some habitats or field boundaries might be eligible for enhanced payments under CS—but only if they meet strict criteria.
And then there’s BNG—where eligibility depends not just on habitat type, but your ability to commit to 30 years of legally secured management and demonstrate uplift via the biodiversity metric.
It’s not about whether you want the grant. It’s whether your land qualifies under the rules.
Rather than jumping between DEFRA forms, local planning maps, and Magic layers, a Baseline Report pulls all the key information together in one place. It gives you an objective view of what’s already on your land—and what that means for funding.
It helps answer questions like:
This clarity helps you avoid blind alleys. You won’t spend months chasing a grant that your land was never eligible for—or make management changes that disqualify you later.
If you do apply for a grant, your baseline report becomes a ready-made evidence pack. It shows you’ve done your homework. It strengthens your case with spatial data, habitat maps, and a clear understanding of risks. And it gives your agent or adviser something solid to work from, instead of starting from scratch.
It’s also a huge time-saver when speaking to organisations like the Forestry Commission or Natural England. Instead of saying “I think this land might be eligible,” you can say “Here’s what I’ve already got—can we build on it?”
There’s a growing number of opportunities for landowners to get paid for nature recovery, woodland creation, and sustainable land management. But they all start from the same place: knowing what your land can support—and what schemes you can genuinely succeed in.
That’s what a Baseline Report offers. Not a promise of funding—but a clear, realistic path to getting there.
