Shaping the future of more sustainable farming
© Leaf Are you keen to influence how the agricultural sector delivers more sustainable, global farming and food systems?
Would you like the opportunity to shape the future direction of the LEAF Marque Standard, our leading environmental assurance scheme?
LEAF Marque works to build business resilience, improve nature and biodiversity, drive supply chain innovation, and engage consumers in positive change, and to ensure our Standard remains relevant and robust, we are pleased to share that the public consultation on the next version of the Standard is now open and will run until the 24th of May 2024.
The Standard is underpinned by the core framework of Integrated Farm Management and changes have been made to a number of areas and topics, such as soil health, habitat area and biodiversity, waste management including food waste, energy efficiency and carbon footprinting, and water management.
We would love to hear your views. There are several ways you can get involved in the consultation:
- By completing our online surveys: there are two versions – a short survey with targeted questions for those with limited time, and a detailed survey for those with more time. The surveys are also available in Spanish, French and Italian.  Â

LEAF (Linking Environment And Farming) is a charity that promotes and supports more sustainable farming to create a resilient food and farming system for future generations.
We connect: We connect farmers, innovators and industry to understand best practice sustainable farm management and how it can be applied most effectively to each farm’s unique situation.
We build trust: We provide assurance that growers are farming more sustainably through our independently audited LEAF Marque certification; from the health of their soils to how they engage with local communities.
We educate: Our team of qualified educational specialists work with schools, citizens and farmers across the UK to bring sustainable farming to life, both in schools and on-farm. LEAF promotes more regenerative farming through Integrated Farm Management (IFM). It is a whole farm business approach that uses the best of modern technology and traditional methods.
