How we're increasing productivity and enhancing nature on our farm

Posted by: , Posted on: - Categories: A view from the farm

In the latest in our series of films from the Lake District, we visit Miller Farming in Penruddock.

Upland farmers, Garry and Hazel Miller, have sheep, cows, and free-range hens. 

They talk about how they’ve increased productivity and enhanced nature at the same time. They describe the satisfaction of seeing wildlife come back as a result. They also share how they’re working to make their farm more resilient to secure its future.  

Find out what farming payments are available for England's farmers, land managers and foresters.

Thanks to Garry, Hazel and Danny for taking part.
