Keep cattle and ponies on moorland supplement (min. 70% GLU)

Where it applies

Moorland

Eligibility conditions

• If any of this land is an SSSI, you need Natural England's consent before the RPA can offer you an agreement
• Cannot be combined with UPL6 on the same area
• At least 70% of the GLU on the base-action land must be cattle or ponies

What you'll do

A supplement to a moorland grazing action (UPL1, UPL2 or UPL3): keep at least 70% of the grazing livestock units as cattle, ponies, or both — better for moorland biodiversity than sheep alone.

Evidence to keep

• A written stocking calendar showing the cattle/pony share of grazing livestock units

This is a supplement to

• UPL1 — Moderate livestock grazing on moorland
• UPL2 — Low livestock grazing on moorland
• UPL3 — Limited livestock grazing on moorland

Combining with other actions

Same as its base action — see the base action's list.
