The scheme was introduced in 1987.<\/p>\n<p>Originally it was administered by\u00a0Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, then the\u00a0Rural Development Service\u00a0for the\u00a0United Kingdom\u00a0Governments\u00a0Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) and currently\u00a0Natural England, following successive re-organisation of the departments. In 2005 the scheme was superseded by the Environmental Stewardship\u00a0and closed to new entrants. Existing agreements remained active until their expiration, meaning the designation remained active until 2014.<\/p>\n<p>Farmers entered into a 10-year contract with the government and received an annual payment for the area that is part of the scheme. Farmers were expected to adopt\u00a0environmentally friendly\u00a0agricultural practices.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h5>READ MORE<\/h5>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/data.gov.uk\/dataset\/a5b0ccc4-a144-4027-91fa-49084ff07da2\/environmentally-sensitive-areas-england\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Environmentally Sensitive Areas &#8211; England (Gov.uk)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Environmentally_sensitive_area\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Environmentally sensitive area (Wikipedia)<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An\u00a0Environmentally Sensitive Area\u00a0is a type of designation for an\u00a0agricultural\u00a0area which needs special protection because of its\u00a0landscape,\u00a0wildlife\u00a0or historical value.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":11056,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[153,19],"tags":[314,721,722,193,194,195],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>What is an Environmentally Sensitive Area (ESA)?
