Understanding Carbon – Inverness-shire

Scotland boasts a diverse range of crops and soil types and farming systems.  What works in one region may not be relevant in another so a series of regional focus groups have been created to draw on the learnings from Farm Advisory Service Crops events on crops and soils, previous Soil Nutrient Network farms, Farmbench groups, latest research and AHDB Arable Monitor Farms and will allow farmers to take these discussions further through their local focus groups.

Speakers and topics

1. Arable farming – sources of carbon emissions and mitigation methods  – Julian Bell
2. Practical steps on arable farms to benefit the business and reduce carbon – George Chalmers

Please note that the focus of this meeting will be on the Inverness-shire area
