[edit]As far as I understand ELM replaces the CAP, within the UK. It is a £multi-billion/year scheme and the main type of subsidy now for farming in the UK. I don't have time to learn about what makes something notable, but it is covered dozens of times on e.g. Farming Today [Radio 4], and in countless news articles etc. I've linked to a few at the end of this comment. It would be very odd not to have this topic in wikipedia!
Referring to the points in the GNG: There is /significant coverage/ (articles etc) in /reliable soures/ that are /independent of the subject/ (e.g. general high-quality newspapers, BBC programmes, etc).
Here are some of the times ELMS was covered on Farming Today: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0014wm4 https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000w486 https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0006143 https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000gcxq https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000gd1d https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000gbh9
Here are articles about it, both from newspapers, the BBC and other organisations: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/article/2024/sep/03/englands-nature-friendly-farming-budget-to-be-cut-by-100m
