  "long_title": "This Scheme, which applies to Great Britain, provides for the payment of annual grants to abate financial losses incurred in consequence of the conversion of agricultural land (including, in Scotland, common grazings) to use for woodlands. The Scheme complies with Title VIII of Council Regulation (EEC) No. 2328/91 on improving the efficiency of agricultural structures (OJ No. L218, 6.8.91 p.1). This Scheme supersedes the Farm Woodland Scheme 1988 under which no further applications may be accepted after the coming into force of this Scheme (paragraph 16).",
