R&D Tax Credits in

Agriculture

Advancements in agriculture technology are essential if we want to work alongside global factors such as population growth, rising temperatures and climate change. These challenges need to be dealt with sooner rather than later, hence the immense, ongoing need for development in agriculture technology.

So... what is R&D?

What makes my business eligible for innovation funding?

  • Being a limited company in the UK, subject to corporation tax

  • Having carried out research and development into new products or processes

  • Having spent money on these projects

What are examples of claimable projects within Agriculture?

A typical claim is likely to include:

  • Process improvements

  • Increased production and scalability

  • Technology and software

  • Improving standards

These are only examples. The rules of R&D are not rigid, they are put into place to reward and refund those who are dealing with uncertainty. The result of your R&D doesn’t have to be a success either, you can be eligible for a refund even if the project was unsuccessful!
