B-Lines and incorporating pollinator habitat on the farm - Alice Parfitt, Buglife
Alice Parfitt will be taking a look at the B-Lines project which Buglife operates to link pollinator habitat across the country. As one of these lines passes through the centre of the group area Alice will be going through how you can encourage pollinators and integrate habitat onto your farm.

Habitat creation and connectivity under the Sustainable Farming Incentive - CLM
Although still in its pilot phase, Natural England has released several bits of information about the Sustainable Farming Incentive level of the ELM scheme. This includes potential requirements relating to the creation and maintenance of pollinator and bird habitat in order to access the different levels of the scheme so we will discuss how this might be achieved.
