For the record

The headline of an article, Revealed: farmers received just 0.44% of post-Brexit payments last year (12 February, p6), did not intend to suggest that only this percentage of the government’s overall £2.4bn budget for agricultural support in England was distributed. The article referred to the sustainable farming incentive (SFI) – one of the schemes launched to replace a 22% cut in direct subsidies since Brexit – which saw a sum equivalent to just 0.44% of the farming budget paid out in 2022. Meanwhile, around £1.65bn was paid in direct subsidies. This ought to have been clearer.

The Black Sabbath guitarist is Tony Iommi; however, the text and photo caption of an article gave his first name as “Tommy” and “Tommi” respectively (Notebook, 12 February, p36).

A review of the Wondery podcast Stolen Hearts omitted scriptwriter credits for Tom Wright and Anna Sinfield, alongside Kim MacAskill whom the piece did name (12 February, the New Review, p31).

In Nigel Slater’s recipe for spicy aubergine stew (12 February, Magazine, p20), we neglected to say when the grilled aubergines should be added to the pot; it is just before the wine and the stock.
