A lease of bare land to a single tenant farmer on a short-term farm business tenancy (FBT) for a fixed term of two years or less.

This document is for use where the land is in Wales. For land in England, see Standard document, Short form agricultural farm business tenancy: bare land.

To comply with the notice conditions for a farm business tenancy, the landlord and the tenant should each give the other a written notice before the beginning of the tenancy, stating that the tenancy is to be, and remain, a farm business tenancy. See Standard document, Notice under section 1(4) of the Agricultural Tenancies Act 1995.

Note: The UK left the EU on 31 January 2020. Agriculture is a devolved matter. The Agriculture (Wales) Act 2023 (AWA 2023) received Royal Assent on 17 August 2023. The AWA 2023 is split into six parts and provides a new statutory framework for agricultural policy in Wales based on Sustainable Land Management ("SLM"). The principal proposed delivery mechanism for SLM will be the Sustainable Farming Scheme (SFS) (which will replace the Basic Payment Scheme and other EU-agri-environment support schemes). For more information on the AWA 2023, see Practice note, Agriculture (Wales) Act 2023 . For more information on SFS, see Practice note, Transition to Sustainable Farming Scheme (Wales).
