The Cotswolds Conservation Board will host this year’s annual Farming Forum at the Royal Agricultural University in Cirencester on Tuesday 8 March from 6:30pm.
The Forum will look at and discuss how farming might change over the next 25 years and what this means for the farming businesses, communities and the Cotswold landscape.
2016 is the 50th anniversary of the designation of the Cotswolds as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). The AONB is a living working landscape with over 85% of the area farmed – of which 49% is crops and fallow and 42% grass.
Guest speakers include: Cotswolds farmer Henry Robinson who will look at land management today and how government agendas impact and Dr. Diane Mitchell, NFU’s Chief Environment Adviser will discuss how farming might look like in the Cotswolds in 25 years’ time.
The event is open to the farming community and further information can be obtained by calling 01451 862001.
