Farm Business Tenancy Agreements and Notices
These Farm Business Tenancy Agreements and Notices are for use by owners of agricultural property who let land using Farm Business Tenancies (FBTs).
Farm Business Tenancies (FBTs) are a specific type of agricultural tenancy in England and Wales, established under the Agricultural Tenancies Act 1995. They provide a modern framework for the rental of agricultural land and buildings for commercial purposes. They replaced the more restrictive arrangements under the Agricultural Holdings Act 1986 for new tenancies from 1 September 1995 onwards. FBTs offer a more flexible arrangement for agricultural land tenancy, allowing for more tailored agreements that can accommodate a wide range of agricultural and related business activities, benefiting both landowners and farming businesses by facilitating easier adjustments to operational needs and market conditions.
These Template Farm Business Tenancy Agreements and Notices are designed for lettings of agricultural land. There are different versions for short (up to two year) terms and longer terms - with or without farm buildings. They contain detailed provisions regulating what the tenant can and cannot do during the term. There are also easy to use notices for use prior to the grant of an FBT and during the term of the tenancy. These include the Initial Notice of FBT, Break Notices, Notices to Quit and Rent Review templates.
The documents are constructed in Word format, and can be customised to meet your requirements. Please click on the links below to access and download the Office Leases and Licences.
