holding numbers and glysophate
The message
from robert contains these words: A holding number is the county/parish/holding number (CPH) given to all agricultural holdings registered with Defra or one of its agencies. They are based on nine digits, county x2/parish x3/holding x4, eg 10/301/1111 Whilst they are not as important for involvement is subsidy schemes as they used to be they are still useful as a tool for identifying the location of farming businesses. If you have a smallholding or land that could be classed as part of the farmed environment you can apply for a CPH. Many thanks. Interesting wording "classed as part of the farmed environment"; would that mean it doesn't necessarily have to be a commercial enterprise? brian mitchell |

If you really need those sort of quantities... I do. I have 1-1/2 acres of fairly densely planted trees growing on what was formerly long-established pasture. Although Martin says grass is exquisitely susceptible to glyphosate, that's not my experience. May well be true for lawn grasses, but on old pasture it will kill off the top growth but doesn't seem to get all the way through the root system, so it grows back. brian mitchell then get registered -- Charlie Pridham, Gardening in Cornwall www.roselandhouse.co.uk Holders of national collections of Clematis viticella cultivars and Lapageria rosea |

Interesting wording "classed as part of the farmed environment"; would that mean it doesn't necessarily have to be a commercial enterprise? Land that is part of the farmed environment but not actually used for commercial activities can be eligible for a CPH as the land may be eligible for entry into environmental management schemes run by Natural England or the Forestry commission. You may want to contact the RPA (0845 603 7777) as they deal with CPH allocation on behalf of Defra. -- Robert |
