As requested please see in the table the number of hectares currently eligible under the BPS and greening scheme, by county.  These figures are based on the total digitised area per county and the maximum eligible area per county i.e the area before the deduction of any ineligible areas such as roadways, inaccessible areas, rivers, dense scrub etc and the remaining eligible area.  The figure of total national land is not held on the departments LPIS (land parcel identification system).
