Glastir

An agri-environment scheme for farmers and land managers in Wales developed as part of the Common Agricultural Policy. Glastir ends on 31 December 2023 and is replaced by an interim Habitat Wales scheme issuing 12-month contracts prior to the introduction of the Sustainable Farming Scheme in 2025.
Glastir includes objectives such as to manage soils and improve water quality, reduce flood risk, conserve and enhance wildlife and biodiversity, protect landscapes and improve access to the countryside.
