Re-register with Farming Connect by 7 December 2026
If your business is participating in the Sustainable Farming Scheme (SFS), you need to be registered with Farming Connect to access the learning and practical support available to help you complete your SFS requirements.
Why register by 7 December?
Registering by 7 December gives us time to process your registration and make sure your records are up to date. Please don't wait until the 31 December SFS deadline. Registrations received after 7 December cannot be guaranteed to be processed in time for the SFS year-end deadline.
What you need to do
- Log in to RPW online.
- Complete your Farming Connect re-registration by 7 December.
- Make sure the relevant individuals within your business are registered.
- Complete your required learning before the year-end deadline.
Even if you have used Farming Connect in the past, you still need to re-register through RPW online.
The Welsh Government is transitioning from the Government Gateway to GOV.UK One Login for all digital rural support services. This change will affect how you access Farming Connect.
Please act now to make sure you can continue to access all available support!
- Create your GOV.UK One Login account by visiting: Log in to Rural Payments Wales (RPW) Online | GOV.WALES
- Once your One Login account is set up, you will be able to re-register with Farming Connect – You can do this via RPW online, once you have a one login account.
- You will also need your existing CON number during re‑registration. (A letter has been issued to all users listing every CON number associated with their business.)
Acting now will ensure you don’t lose access to Farming Connect services and your Storfa Sgiliau record.
Access to your historical Storfa Sgiliau record is essential if applying for the Sustainable Farming Scheme.
