Agriculture is one of our biggest and most complex environmental and net zero challenges. It is also one of the areas where climate action and nature recovery can come together most powerfully.  This new Fit for the Future virtual discussion group will provide members with an opportunity to share questions, approaches, challenges, opportunities, resources/tools, progress and lessons learnt with members from across the network.

 

This group will bring members together to discuss a range of topics, including:

 

  • Understanding the wide range of environmental impacts and opportunities of agriculture
  • Decarbonising agriculture
  • Water management
  • Nature friendly farming e.g. Agroforestry, creating field margins, planting hedgerows, restoring traditional hay meadows, using livestock for conservation grazing and other initiatives to support and restore nature
  • Agriculture and climate change (understanding risks and resilience strategies)
  • Developing an environmentally sustainable agriculture policy, strategy and action plan
  • Internal communication and buy-in.  How do you embed in your organisation’s culture?
