Terms and Conditions

All users important notice

This a test version of the Farm Portal only. The proposed planning rules that determine if your farm will likely require a consent or your farm would likely be a permitted activity do not apply at the present time. These proposed rules will most likely become operative sometime in 2017.

For the rules that currently apply to your Farm please call Customer Services on 0800 324 636.
