environmental land management schemes, Future Farming and Countryside Programme
The Future Farming Countryside Programme will co-design the future of farming with farmers. We’re working with farmers to test their ideas until we have a format that works. This post explains our 'Test and Trial' approach. As we go along, we learn what works, what doesn’t and how we can improve.
This is us, working in the open
We're the team working on the Future of Farming programme, which is all about how farming policy will change over the next 7 years.
We'll use this blog to share our work. We'll post regular updates, some about the big, important announcements but mostly about smaller steps we take along the way.
Protecting the health of our trees and plants
Plants and trees contribute £9 billion every year in social and economic value, they also keep us alive. Our aim is to mitigate and minimise the impact of pests and diseases and improve the capacity of our trees to adapt to changing pressures. In this post, we outline how we plan to do this.
