The Agri-Environment Option Scheme (AEOS) 3 Terms and Conditions specifically states that existing AEOS applicants together with participants of both the Rural Environment Protection Scheme and the National Parks and Wildlife Service’s Farm Plan Scheme are ineligible to participate in AEOS 3. The total number of applicants under AEOS 3 who were deemed ineligible on the basis that they were still in another environmental scheme was 63. This figure is broken down as follows: AEOS I Participant, 5; AEOS II Participant, 14; Participant in NPWS Scheme, 7; and REPS Participant, 37.
