This agreement was first produced in 2005 by members of the Land Group of the RICS in Northern Ireland, in response to a variety of issues raised by the introduction of the Single Farm Payment Scheme (SFP). This third edition includes alterations resulting from recent changes in the SFP rules. Conacre is a system of letting agricultural land that is unique to Ireland. The current use of 'conacre' originated with the Land Acts of the mid-nineteenth century. Today the term is used to reflect the system where landowners who wish to retain their land but not farm it can licence the land to another farmer, usually for a period of eleven months.
