Regenerative Agriculture Open Event at Great Yorkshire Showground
An event next month will shine a light on innovative approaches to grassland management.
The Farmer Scientist Network at the Yorkshire Agricultural Society has organised the event, which will take place at the Great Yorkshire Showground on Thursday, March 6.
The event is for farmers at any stage of their regenerative agriculture journey, with experts on hand to offer guidance on how best to nurture soil on both arable and livestock farms.
Dr Dave George, chair of the Farmer Scientist Network, said: "Getting started with regenerative practices on your farm can be daunting and it does take patience and perseverance to realise the considerable benefits.
"This event is all about bringing farmers and experts together to drive better understanding and more informed application of principles that put soil health first on your farm."
Soil scientist Neil Fuller will be in attendance to offer farmers new advice during a session exploring how regenerative practices are transforming the food we eat.
Farmers will also hear from Fraser Hugill, director of the Beef Shorthorn Association, and Angus Gowthorpe, founder of The Green Farm Collective.
The Regenerative Agriculture Open Event will run from 9.30am to 3.15pm and costs £20 per person; places can be booked at
