Wainfleet Monitor Farm meeting: Environmental management update and preparing for zero carbon
Environmental management update and preparing for zero carbon
What options are available for getting the best out of environmental management schemes? We will look at practical and profitable options in current stewardship schemes, what to expect from future schemes and how to navigate the red tape. Discussions will also include Farming Rules for Water, NVZs, and nutrient management planning. The second part of the meeting aims to answer all your questions on carbon, from the most basic to the more involved.
