What is WF1?
WF1 is an action under the Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI) scheme. It pays £327.12 per year for create a wildfire checklist.
What do I need to do?
* Walk your whole holding to create a wildfire checklist to identify fire risks.
* Complete the wildfire checklist and mark up a map showing identified fire risks.

Wildfires are more likely if:
* a site is heavily used by the public – there’s a threat from discarded cigarette butts or barbeques
What evidence do I need?
You must keep the wildfire checklist and map and provide them with your claim.
