From 1999 [Tir Gofal|Glossary#Tir Gofal|target='_blank'], the all Wales agri-environment scheme (which replaced the earlier geographically limited Environmentally Sensitive Areas and Tir Cymen schemes), promoted the conservation and sympathetic management of individual monuments and the wider historic landscape through the introduction of whole-farm management plans tied to annual payments. The historic environment of each farm entering the scheme was assessed, using information in the HER and targeted field visits, and specific management recommendations produced for individual monuments and the historic landscape in general. In addition to advice on the management of individual features the scheme also funded landowners to undertake a range of capital works which could include improvements to the condition of archaeological monuments and historic buildings. The Tir Gofal scheme was closed to new applicants in 2007, although existing management plans were allowed to run until 2013.

The scheme was initially run by the Countryside Council for Wales ([CCW|Glossary#CCW|target='_blank]), but was latterly transferred to the Rural Payments Division of the Welsh Government.

In 2012 Tir Gofal was replaced by the [Glastir|Glossary#Glastir|target='_blank'] scheme, a new all-Wales scheme which operates on two levels much like the current English schemes. In preparation for this scheme the Welsh HERs digitised management polygons which identified those areas containing Historic Environment Features. The Welsh Archaeological Trusts (WATs) continue to submit polygons to a national data set hosted by the Welsh Government which assists in running the Glastir scheme. In the lower level scheme successful applicants are required not to damage historic features within these polygons. In the advanced scheme there are a number of grant aided management options which can be followed to improve the condition of these areas. Since 2012 the Glastir scheme has expanded to give grant aid for woodland management and new planting, replacing the Forestry Commission's [Better Woodlands for Wales Scheme|Glossary#Better Woodlands for Wales|target='_blank'], and also gives out a number of small grants for one off improvement works. The WATs are consulted on applicants applying for the advanced (and other) schemes within Glastir and provide management reports for selected areas and landscapes, for which they receive payment from the Welsh Government.
