Regenerative Agriculture:

Our family farm uses organic and regenerative farming methods such as mob grazing, herbal leys, cover cropping, no tilling and no synthetic pesticides, fungicides, or fertilisers. Our cattle graze on 100% pasture for life.

Regenerative agriculture has been shown to improve soil health, nutrients and structure which can:

(i) improve the nutritional quality of the food we eat (crops and meat);

(ii) improve livestock health and wellbeing;

(iii) improve biodiversity and wildlife habitats;

(iv) increase the production capacity of the soil;

(v) improve the capacity of the soil to store carbon (which can help to reverse climate change);

(vi) improve the capacity of the soil to hold water (reducing the effects of flooding); and

(vii) reduce erosion and desertification.

On the basis of our own calculations using the Farm Carbon Calculator (https://calculator.farmcarbontoolkit.org.uk/) our farm is carbon negative.
