    The Single Farm Payment is a fully decoupled payment based on payments which were received under various EU schemes in a specific reference period. While you may not qualify for the SFP, there are other schemes which you may enroll in which would have entitlements associated with them (for example REPS4, Farm Waste Management Scheme etc). If you contact your local Teagasc office, an advisor will be able to appraise your situation and inform you of your entitlements.
