    Simple answer No. Only leased land from the start of your plan till finish of plan is eligible for payment.

    You also have to farm any extra land you rent to REPS standards.

    Thanks Fellas - I understand we would be entitled to area aid at e36/acre.
    This leave a big difference to cover the rental costs - not worth the time and effort!

    you could consider buying SPS entitlements to put on the extra land, as an investment

    Afraid so, in order to get REPS on this land you would need to enter a new REPS 4 contract but as the scheme is closed thats not possible. If you do take it on you will have to farm it to REPS standard but yoiu wont get REPS payment on it.

    It is that simple, if u rent 50 acres no good as rented land was never eligible, leased land only, no land can be added to a reps plan to increase payment.
