Generally there are no savings in payments when a farmer moved from AEOS to GLAS due to the fact that, on average, payments under GLAS are higher than the payments under AEOS. In addition, payments under the non-productive capital investment action under AEOS continue to be made when a farmer transforms to GLAS.
