Nature and farming are under immense pressure

Decades of government incentives to intensify food production in the UK have led to wildlife declines, degraded soils and polluted rivers and lakes. But it’s not just nature that’s affected. The loss of these natural systems has made farming harder.

Meanwhile, rising costs, extreme weather, market pressures, and policy uncertainty have made it even more difficult to run a profitable farm.
