APPENDIX 7: NON-FOOD SET-ASIDE - TABLES 1 TO 3: CN CODES AND DESCRIPTIONS

1. You can grow a wide range of crops with food or animal-feed uses for non-food use on

set-aside land. These are listed in table 1. Some have special conditions next to their name (such as rapeseed) which you must follow. In tables 1 and 2, an 'ex' in front of a CN code means that you are allowed to grow only the plant listed beside the code and not all plants that fall under the code. Not all these crops have obvious non-food uses. You can grow sugar beet, Jerusalem artichokes and chicory on set-aside land as long as you meet the conditions set out next to their names in table 1, but we don't pay AAPS payments on any set-aside land used to grow these three crops.
