Abstract

The project is addressing the implementation of the SFI IPM paid actions, including incentive payments rates, and provision of advice and guidance. The project has provided evidence to support implementation of the SFI IPM paid actions by determining engagement of farmers who are less likely to engage pro-actively with IPM initiatives. Participant farmers in this project were actively selected and contacted by the project team. This ‘actively selected’ group are differentiated from participants in the preceding IPM T&T (Project 253a), who opted-in to be involved and were therefore self-selecting.
The project was overseen by a steering group of stakeholders. It addressed three ELM theme areas summarised in the sub-sections below. Recommendations for each relevant policy question can be found under Findings and Recommendations.
