This is a joint initiative that also involves the Environment Agency, MDC, RABDF and Dairy UK and is designed to draw attention to the big environmental challenges faced by dairy farmers and offer guidance on simple, cost effective measures that dairy farmers could undertake to mitigate their impact.
On top of this, there is an important political dimension to the initiative in being able to demonstrate to regulators that in taking a proactive approach to environmental issues, dairy farmers deserve Government support in terms of both regulatory burdens and capital investment.
The 20-page document is available to download below along with a summary of its contents.
