Join us at Woodland Valley Farm to explore how farming and biodiversity can support each other.
The day will include a farm walk led by Chris Jones, who will share an example of how providing an area of land to support biodiversity can deliver public goods such as reduced flooding risk and improved water quality. We will also explore the opportunities available to farmers by increasing farm biodiversity and the role biodiversity plays in the farm of the future.
Refreshments and pasties will be provided.
Regenerative farming looks to optimise the use of the ecological system and environment, in order to benefit from the natural ecosystem services that they provide.
Innovation for Agriculture (IfA) is an independent knowledge exchange charity that aims to bridge the gap between science and practice.
Farming is intricately connected to the environment in various ways. The relationship between agriculture and the environment is a critical aspect of modern farming practices. Please share information, resources, tools and experiences on the multifaceted dimensions of how farming intersects with the environment.
Biodiversity encompasses all the variety of life on Earth from genes to species, populations, communities and ecosystems. In ecological and environmental sectors, we mostly refer to the biodiversity of plant and animal communities within particular habitats.
