This study developed thinking on how alternative systems of livestock support might be introduced, reviewed the potential options and explained why it was believed that the system recommended (Forage Area Payment Scheme) could meet the objectives of redistributing current support in a more production-neutral and environmentally beneficial manner. In essence, the proposals were essentially for a unified system of area payments for all of the livestock sectors, which would provide a much more robust basic level of support upon which further levels of environmental measures could be applied without any fundamental contradiction.
