ACRES Advisors

Farmers interested in entering the Agri-Climate Rural Environment Scheme (ACRES) were required to engage an approved ACRES Advisor to prepare and submit their ACRES application.

In addition to preparing and submitting applications for ACRES on behalf of their clients, approved ACRES advisors may also subsequently assist those approved into the Scheme throughout their contractual term in a number of ways, including:

  • The assessment and scoring of the lands for the making of results-based payments under the Scheme
  • Preparation and submission of applications for Non-Productive Investments (NPIs) on behalf of participants in the ACRES Co-operation approach in line with the relevant specifications and
  • Liaising with the ACRES Co-operation Project (CP) Teams to support farmers selecting Landscape Actions within the CP areas.

The Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine's YouTube ACRES Advisors' playlist has informational videos.
