Farm Carbon Toolkit Annual Field Day 2023

This year our Annual Field Day will take place on Thursday the 21st September 2023.

A day for farmers by farmers sharing experiences for improving performance and resilience in a challenging environment.

We are grateful to Julian Gold and the Hendred Estate for kindly hosting this conference at the Hendred Estate Farm, Oxfordshire on the edge of the Berkshire Downs (W3W/roosters.bleak.earl). 

During the day we will showcase all the ways in which farmers are already changing farming practice to respond to the need to reduce emissions and build on farm carbon within resilient farm businesses. Sessions will cover the following topics:

  • Grazing clinic
  • Foliar fertilisers
  • Crop cultivation and diversity
  • Feed self-sufficiency
  • Benefiting from private markets for biodiversity and carbon
  • Fuel and energy

Throughout the day, we will share our insights from the work we are doing supporting farmers to reduce GHG emissions and remove carbon into soils and biomass. This involves key elements of the transition to a nature friendly decarbonisation of agriculture.
