In September Eastbrook Farm in Wiltshire hosted UK’s first ever Agroforestry Show – two days of workshops and talks covering how agroforestry can help both arable and pastoral farms to protect livestock, crops, soils, rivers, biodiversity, and climate. The show saw farmers, foresters, researchers, environmentalists, and policy makers sharing insights and advice on how to help farm businesses benefit from trees, as key to ensuring food production while tackling climate change and biodiversity loss.
