About the Event
If you are consdiering investing in some new equipment, tweaks to your farming system, habitat creation, or a specific grant scheme, we are working with Rothamsted Research and Oxbury Bank to develop a suite of finance products to catalyse new projects. Rothamsted are researching the natural capital uplift (e.g. carbon sequestered), which will inturn 'underwrite' the Oxbury loan... albeit there is no obligation to trade the carbon (or other natural capital), however it will help the bank to determine the sustainability of the farming system and thus the risk on the borrowing. More details and a flier to follow. Book on if you are considering investment of any form in:
- regenerative arable (e.g. a new drill)
- regenerative livestock (e.g. new livestock, or new fencing)
- wetland projects (e.g. the new ECP scheme that has just been launched on the Evenlode)
- Tree and hedgerow planting (e.g. like this initiative)
- Agroforestry
- Biodiversity Net Gain
