£2.7m support scheme opens for farmers impacted in 2017

 
 
Farmers who applied for a Force Majeure when their businesses were impacted by severe flooding and landslides on 22 and 23 August 2017 can now apply for the one-off financial payment.
 
 
“The extreme flooding event meant that the farming and wider rural communities in the North West experienced significant hardship,” the Minister explains.
“Farm businesses lost income due to the impact on their land and the cost of removing debris and silt, as well as reseeding to restore it back to productive use.
“So I am delighted to say that this North West 2017 Flooding Income Support Scheme, worth almost £2.7million, is now open to applications.
