SUMMARY:Farming the Fens: Building resilient peatland systems
DESCRIPTION:Join this free webinar hosted by Fenland SOIL and Soil Association\, exploring new developments in sustainable farming systems on the Fens. \nLowland peat soils support some of the most productive farming systems in the country but are also responsible for a significant proportion of agricultural greenhouse gas emissions. Farmers working these soils face growing pressure to reduce emissions and restore peat\, while maintaining profitable food production. \nThis session explores how landscape opportunity mapping can support climate‑positive decisions on lowland peat. It will share new evidence from paludiculture and raised‑water‑table trials\, including what these approaches mean for yields and carbon emissions. You’ll also hear insights from flux‑tower research showing how regenerative practices are influencing carbon dynamics across commercial peatland farms. Finally\, the session brings together practical experiences from growers trialling sub‑irrigation\, water‑table management and regenerative approaches at scale\, helping to shape a more sustainable and resilient future for farming on the Fens.
