	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/10/2019 answer text <p>To support the development of Environmental Land Management Schemes, we are undertaking a number of tests and trials working with farmers and land managers to co-design elements of the new scheme. The work is being facilitated by a range of stakeholders, including farmer groups, representative bodies and non-governmental organisations, and covers a range of geographies and sectors. 46 proposals are currently being taken forward in phase 1 and we anticipate that a number of these will begin soon with Defra reimbursing agreed costs incurred in their delivery. We have received a further 200 proposals for phase 2. We will prioritise those proposals from phase 2 that fill gaps identified from the coverage of phase 1 proposals. We will communicate the results of our analysis of the phase 2 proposals to stakeholders later this month.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Camborne and Redruth answering member printed George Eustice question first answered 08/10/2019 13:15:07 answering member 3934 label Biography information for George Eustice attachment 1 file name Phase 1 proposals.xlsx title Phase 1 proposals table

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/10/2019 answer text <p>Tests and trials will not assess if new practices or interventions achieve environmental outcomes. This is because testing environmental outcomes would require a much longer timeframe and our initial priority is testing those elements necessary to ensure the successful commencement of the National Pilot in 2021. However, following the submission of phase 1 proposals, the Tests and Trials team have identified gaps within the existing tests and trials and made these areas a priority for phase 2. These gaps include certain sectors of the industry which were under-represented.</p> answering member constituency Camborne and Redruth answering member printed George Eustice question first answered 08/10/2019 11:57:26 answering member 3934 label Biography information for George Eustice

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/10/2019 answer text <p>I value the role of county farm smallholdings, and particularly the opportunities they offer for new entrant farmers. We are considering whether we can use funds to refresh the county farm model by supporting local authorities to reinvest in their farms, helping with facilitation funding so that the farms are more of a hub for new entrants, and working with them to make it easier to move tenants out so that we have a constant pipe stream of new opportunities for new entrants.</p><p><br> Alongside that, we are considering whether that can be broadened beyond the traditional county farm, which has existed for many decades since the war, to include some of the peri-urban farms, which often have links to the agro-ecology movement and are often smaller community-based groups. Where local authorities have land that they can make available, we might be able to support the fostering of those schemes, which can be popular.</p> answering member constituency Camborne and Redruth answering member printed George Eustice grouped question UIN 291303 question first answered 08/10/2019 16:27:13 answering member 3934 label Biography information for George Eustice
