The FarmPEAT Programme is a locally-led pilot initiative for farmers who manage lands that surround some of Ireland’s remaining raised bogs. The project trials an agri-environmental scheme across eight project sites centered on raised bogs or former raised bog areas in the Irish midland counties of Roscommon, Offaly, Kildare and Westmeath. It rewards farmers for improved management of habitats on peat soils along with other important landscape features such as eskers, field boundaries and watercourses. The programme is results-based – farmers are paid depending on the scores they achieve, with higher scores, indicating higher environmental quality, receiving higher payments. On joining the programme, a participating farm is scored, with a corresponding payment made to the farmer. If the score increases (indicating that the habitat and environmental quality has increased) the following year, a higher payment is issued. Result indicators include terrestrial farmland habitats, watercourses and drainage features, and transitional bog habitats. Results are assessed on a scale of 0 to 10 using habitat scorecards adapted to the target habitats and features. If a farmer wishes to undertake measures to improve the farm score, the FarmPEAT Project Team provides advice and guidance on appropriate measures that can be taken to achieve this. In addition, the Project Team can offer financial assistance to complete these actions in the form of a Supporting Actions Payment. Neighbouring landowners who are not participant famers can take part in an Affiliate Member programme, allowing rewetting actions impacting their land to occur. Over a period of two years, the Project Team has worked with 51 farmers, with over EUR 250,000 disbursed in results-based payments and Annual Work Plans agreed with 26 farmers to support actions to improve their environmental score. The FarmPEAT Wet Grassland Scorecard is being used by the Irish Department of Agriculture, Forestry and the Marine in the new national agri-environmental scheme, ACRES.
