UK government to pay older farmers to retire

Older farmers will be paid to retire under a UK government scheme to bring new blood into the trade.

The average farmer could receive a lump sum payment of £50,000 - capped at £100,000 for farmers with most land.

It is part of a massive overhaul of farm grants, incentivising farmers to protect the environment.

Older farmers are often most resistant to new "green" methods, and Environment Secretary George Eustice wants them to move on.

[...!!! Resistant to green?! This is the cultural revolution of ag!]
