Tir Gofal

Tir Gofal (Welsh Care of the Land) was an agri-environmental scheme in Wales launched by the Welsh Assembly Government in 1999. It aimed to encourage farmers and landowners to manage their land in an environmentally friendly way. Its main objectives were "to protect and enhance habitats of importance to wildlife, to protect the historic environment, to protect and restore rural landscapes and to promote public access to the countryside." The scheme operated under the Common Agricultural Policy, and was jointly funded by the European Union and the United Kingdom Government. In 2011, the scheme was replaced by another environmental scheme, Glastir.
