Abstract

These Regulations amend the principal Regulations by inserting a new set of arable options and making some minor amendments. Such options include retention of overwintered stubbles followed by the cultivation or fallow creation and management of a conservation headland (with or without fertilizer application), establishment and maintenance of wildlife seed mixtures providing a food source and cover for a range of wild birds, mammals and invertebrates, and establishment and maintenance of nectar and pollen-rich plant mixture for the benefit of foraging insects, wild birds and mammals.
