South East England Development Agency (SEEDA)

Funding opportunities for Farm Diversification projects have now been consolidated under one scheme and all Farm Diversification projects should now apply for grant funding via the Rural Development Programme for England (RDPE).

If your project requires less then £50,000 grant funding and you are located within a Leader area please contact your Local Action Group (LAG).

Please refer to our RDPE pages for the

• Postcode lookup tool to see if which Leader area applies to you
• Maps of the Leader areas
• LAG contact details.

If you are located outside of a leader area and require less then £50,000 grant then you will need to apply directly to RDPE by completing an Expression of Interest form.

Farm Diversification projects that require more then £50,000 of grant funding located anywhere within the South East region should also apply directly to SEEDA using the same Expression of Interest form. However please note that Farm Diversification projects requiring more then £50,000 will need to meet additional selection criteria. Please refer to Appendix 1 of the RDPE Prospectus.
