The transition to net zero: What are the opportunities for farmers?

With climate change an increasingly urgent priority on the global political agenda, what does this mean for farming?  Alice Green, CLA Land Use Policy Adviser, shares with us the opportunities there are for the sector to take action on climate change, how the farming industry should be responding to the Global Methane Pledge and gives advice to farmers who are starting to think about net zero.  You will also hear from Jon Foot, Head of Environment & Resource Management at AHDB, who will discuss how to cut through the complexity around carbon and develop an action plan, the potential to build soil carbon through farm management, and what AHDB are doing to help farmers to transition to net zero.
