BNG: How to secure an income without the risk
We know that biodiversity net gain provides a significant opportunity for farmers to diversify their business, but how much can they earn and how can they mitigate the risk?
Hear first-hand from farmers and BNG experts how the Environment Bank's model removes all liability from the landowner and secures significant long-term income starting in as little as 12 weeks.
Join us live to ask questions and find out how habitat bank creation can help build business resilience and achieve net-zero targets.
Register nowSoil carbon farming: What's in it for me?
There is increasing emphasis on the importance of agricultural soils as a store for tonnes of carbon each year, not least in terms of helping the sector meet its commitment to net zero by 2040.
But what measures are needed to make soils an effective carbon sink, and what added value can sequestration bring to the farm business?
The panel explores soil carbon farming not only as a possible future revenue stream but also in terms of how regenerative farming practices can help store carbon to improve soil health and overall productivity.
Watch nowCapitalise on existing trees and woods on your farm
In this webinar, the Woodland Trust explains how farm woodlands and trees can deliver for farming businesses. With appropriate management, the woody assets on your farm can provide products, deliver environmental services and help tackle the climate and nature crisis. Hear first hand from farmers and forestry experts about how to assess and then manage farmland woods and trees as part of your business plan.
Watch nowInnovating farm finance
UK agriculture is in the midst of change at a pace not seen in over a generation. Rising input costs, the uncertainty caused by the pandemic and Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the shape of the market post-Brexit and the phasing out of BPS are just a few of the factors UK farmers are dealing with. Against this backdrop, access to fast and flexible finance to invest in the critical machinery and technology to drive future productivity and growth is vital. Join the panel of experts for the first of three webinars looking at the future of farm funding and finance.
