Biodiversity

From 2025, there will be increased conditionality to subsidy payments and this is expected to have an increased focus on biodiversity.

Many farming businesses are looking to upskill themselves on how to measure what biodiversity they have, increase what is already present and how to monitor changes. If that is you then head to the Monitoring, measuring and increasing the biodiversity on your farm section.

While our Habitat and Landscape Management looks more closely at the habitats and land types that exist on farm including muirburn and protecting peatlands.
