The Farming Equipment and Technology Fund opened on 17 March 2026 and there’s £50 million of funding available.

If you’re a farmer, grower, forester or contractor, you can apply for a grant of up to £25,000 to help cover the cost of equipment that cuts costs, boosts efficiency and supports animal health and welfare.

Whether that’s a precision pesticide sprayer to cut chemical costs, a slurry separator to reduce your fertiliser bill, or an autonomous robot to help with planting, over 200 types of equipment are eligible.

Applications are open for six weeks, closing at midday on Tuesday 28 April.
