6/19/2023 0 Comments Ag source and verona![]() ![]() I am delighted to see such a strong response to ACRES. ![]() The scheme received 46,000 applicants and approximately 1,450 of these are applicants from County Wexford. Intake into the Green Low Carbon Agri-environment Scheme (GLAS), the predecessor to ACRES, was also on a tranche basis for the same reason.Īpplications for Tranche 1 are closed, however, it is anticipated that ACRES Tranche 2 will open for applications in Quarter 4 of 2023. Phasing the intake into the Scheme helps to spread the workload on advisors. Tranche 1 of ACRES opened for applications on Monday 17th October 2022 and closed Wednesday 7th December 2022. This is a significant number so the intake into the scheme is being phased, with at least two tranches. The Government has committed €1.5 billion to ACRES over its duration with the aim of facilitating the participation of 50,000 farmers. There are two approaches available to farmers under ACRES, namely the ACRES General approach and the ACRES Co-operation approach depending on the location of their holding. It is a voluntary scheme whereby farmers, when approved into the Scheme, will undertake certain environmental actions on their land for at least five years. The Agri-Climate Rural Environment Scheme (ACRES) is the agri-environment climate measure in Ireland’s CAP Strategic Plan 2023 – 2027. ![]() Link to this: Individually | In context | Oireachtas source Charlie McConalogue (Donegal, Fianna Fail) ![]()
