Future Food Solutions believe this sustainable landscape approach will explore, with input from key industry partners if there is a more connected way of conserving natural resources, minimising impact  whilst maximising food and drink production potential.

Yorkshire Water are committed to this mentoring initiative, which focuses on farm resilience, agricultural sustainability and crucially farm business profitability. With the support of the food supply chain, we really believe it has the potential to not only be an exemplar in how to manage landscapes for multiple benefits, but also because it is very much based around improving farm profits
