Grazing licences can be used where you wish to let land on a short term basis.  This allows someone onto your land for a specified period where you are still in management control, as opposed to a farm tenancy which grants exclusive possession of your land.  Under a grazing licence, the land is still deemed to be occupied by the landowner and so the landowner can continue claiming the baisc payment scheme on it.  

 

If you wish to let out your land for grazing, then it is important to have the arrangement correctly documented.  We can assist with drawing up grazing licences.
