All of our advisers have a working knowledge of the Entry and Higher Level Stewardship, Countryside Stewardship, Environmentally Sensitive Area and English Woodland Grant Schemes.

We can advise on the operation of these schemes as well as on the application process and the options that should be chosen in order to secure an agreement. Our fully integrated approach considers the environmental and financial benefits for environmental schemes and also the practical implications, constraints and opportunity costs. This ensures that sustainable and workable agreements are secured, providing mutual benefits for the environment and the landowner alike without disrupting the efficient farming of the holding.

“We have been working with Strutt & Parker to improve the habitat on the estate for the last 15 years and found that they’re always up with the latest thinking. We’ve been in the Countryside Stewardship Scheme for seven years now and the ELS has been very successful - we simply couldn’t have done it without their support and advice.”
