Sector profit without support payments
Support payments accounted for 40% of profit from all farming in 2025, down from 53% in 2024. Over the last ten years (2016 to 2025) support payments accounted for around 64% of profit from farming on average.
Without support payments, the agricultural sector as a whole has been profitable since 2010, although this will vary considerably across sub-sectors.
In 2025, total income from farming less support is estimated at around £0.9 billion.
