Details

The analysis considers the combined financial impact on farming from the various regulatory changes which are currently planned; it sets out how the impacts are expected to vary between farm types and how they relate to existing farm costs and incomes. The estimated cost changes are based on assumptions taken from the relevant Impact Assessments which have then been applied to Farm Business Survey data in order to model the impacts at the farm level.
