Abstract

The Great South West partnership commissioned CCRI to identify the impacts of the Agricultural Transition on farmers and land managers in Devon, Somerset, Dorset and Cornwall & the Isles of Scilly (IoS), in order to assess the impacts and opportunities this might present to a wide range of stakeholders and policy makers. In England 85% of former Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) support was devoted to direct payments under the ‘first pillar’, most of which was the Basic Payment Scheme. This report determines the impact of BPS reductions and the subsequent offers under ELM to the counties and districts across the Great South West on a yearly basis and over a ten-year timescale, 2020-2030. This process involved using the R programming language to determine the relevant postcode areas and the correct allocation in each county and district. R is an open source programming language and software environment for statistical computing and graphics.
