We are clear that Land Use will be the key for farmers and landowners over the coming decade and understanding your Natural Capital assets alongside your more conventional farming assets will be key to the success of your business in the future.

We have a deep understanding of the integration of farming and the environment, grounded in providing practical advice on the potential financial and environmental impact of making changes to your farming system.

We advise our clients on how the new environmental schemes may impact on their business in England and Scotland and prepare applications for ELMS and SFI in England, along with the AECS scheme in Scotland.

We have experience in negotiating specific agreements with NatureScot in Scotland and Natural England when required.

Our view is simple, that farming and the environment are not separate and can complement each other but that there need to be economic benefits alongside biodiversity gains to ensure that any change in land use works for everyone.
