Geospatial nudges for hypothetical Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI) funding agreement

The British Government is committed to a broad range of ambitious environmental targets, set out in primary legislation. To meet these targets, the English landscape will need to be managed in certain specific ways. Agri-environment schemes (AES) are an important tool for encouraging farmers to adopt & continue management practices that encourage biodiversity, sequester carbon, & reduce pollution; the structure & content of these schemes in the UK was, until recently, subject to the European Union's Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). Following the UK's exit from the EU, England was no longer subject to the CAP - creating the opportunity for major reforms to AES in England. A new suite of schemes - known collectively as Environmental Land Management (ELM) - have been designed for England, to help farmers & other land managers deliver our ambitious environmental targets. ELM includes three schemes - the Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI), Countryside Stewardship (CS) & Landscape Recovery (LR). While LR operates according to a collaborative bidding process, SFI & CS allow individual farmers & land managers to apply for funding & access technical guidance to support land management actions that deliver environmental outcomes. SFI covers actions that are easy to deliver & broadly applicable across a wide variety of farm types, with the aim of delivering mass uptake amongst most of the farming population. CS, by contrast, exists to fund more environmentally ambitious, technically specialised actions that need to be spatially targeted. Spatial targeting is a process which enables a system to indicate to customers which actions are likely to be particularly environmentally beneficial for a given piece of land. There are significant pressures to ensure that land is used for the optimum purpose - such as the balance between the desire to maintain food production at current levels, & to dramatically increase carbon storage & biodiversity - & so achieving optimum spatial targeting of high-value agri-environmental options on the land where they will deliver the greatest benefit is a key priority. Currently, farmers access the expertise needed to site actions from a variety of sources: such as private or state-funded advice, or through reading technical guidance that is available on gov.uk. Advice is expensive - either for farmers or for the taxpayer - while written guidance is complicated, & time-consuming to read. The evaluation of live iterations of CS show that uptake of more ambitious options is low, with most farmers choosing less ambitious options that are more familiar, & therefore easier to incorporate into a business plan and carry out. Furthermore, farmers have provided significant amounts of negative feedback about the application process of CS - which involves scrolling through a long, unstructured list of hundreds of options, listed in order of publication - which they say is time-consuming, complicated, and confusing.

Identifying approaches to increasing capacity and improving the diversity of the energy efficiency retrofit supply chain using behavioural science

***** THIS IS AN AWARD NOTICE, NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION ***** This project aims to better understand how to engage the target labour market groups listed above and improve diversity of the supply chain. DESNZ's previous research into the EE retrofit supply chain highlighted that many behavioural factors, such as a preference for construction workers to work within an industry they are familiar with or negative perceptions amongst people of the construction industry as a whole, are key factors limiting the growth of the supply chain. This research will focus on more deeply understanding these existing behavioural barriers that might stop the groups above from entering the EE retrofit supply chain and identify targeted solutions to the barriers. Whilst we know that demand for EE retrofit work is perhaps the biggest barrier to boosting the capacity of the supply chain, this barrier is well known, and work is ongoing to address this. Rather than focusing in-depth on demand, this research should work on the assumption that eventually demand for EE measures and roles in the EE retrofit supply chain will increase, so it should focus on other behavioural barriers that need to be overcome.

Supply of Labour Market Participation Trials

The Supplier shall design, deliver monitor and evaluate a series of trials to explore the effectiveness of a number of specific non-legislative labour market interventions. The trials shall consider the following questions (subject to change): The impact of providing targeted high quality HR support to small business Can a limited amount of HR consultancy help SMEs to retain workers (particularly those at risk of leaving the labour market)? Can HR consultancy help SMEs to increase labour market activity rates by increasing the number and range of candidates they attract Can HR consultancy support successfully enable firms to implement key practices for retention such as flexible working and reasonable adjustments (including occupational health) and conflext and absence management The extent to which the design of job platform websites can: Encourage employers to make reasonable adjustments Increase transparency of part-time working hours Attract applicants to good employers Encourage jobseekers to consider new roles for their skillset Encourage jobseekers to explore adjacent career paths The impact of providing additional career support for mothers on Maternity Leave: Assess the impact of providing information only (eg on flexible working, childcare entitlements and careers paths and support networks (eg initiatives for female entrepreneurs) Assess the impact of a careers coaching session
