#OFC25 throwback: On the topic of blending revenue streams, in our partner session at The Oxford Farming Conference (OFC) we were joined by Nestlé Regeneration Lead for the UK and Ireland, Matt Ryan, who spoke to delegates about the achievements of the Landscape Enterprise Networks (LENs Company Ltd) investment programme and its future development. LENs has been designed to bring together different sectors involved in landscape management and resilience, helping to consolidate shared goals and encourage collaboration between farmers and suppliers to agree coherent objectives. To date there are over 120 farms involved across the East of England and Yorkshire, with Frontier a proud partner of the project. Matt updated delegates on how the project is evolving, with new pathways being introduced which are designed to integrate more with public sector schemes. One such example is the Resilience Payment, with farmers achieving a premium per hectare as a reward for positive performance even for actions achieved through some government schemes.

Frontrunner - 23rd January 2025

Last week in our partner session at The Oxford Farming Conference (OFC), Jonathan Baker from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs shared a status update on the Agricultural Transition and a reminder of its objectives: 1 - Maintain food production 2 - Improve the environment 3 - Move to a self-reliant sector. Jonathan gave an update of progress including some of the latest figures for the Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI), more detail about application plans for the recently announced Countryside Stewardship Higher Tier offer and a review of the Landscape Recovery scheme. He also confirmed the Government's commitments to ELMs, developing a roadmap to 2050, supporting the sector to access new markets and improving supply chain fairness. On the topic of public and private finance, Jonathan reiterated that the expanded offer still accommodates 'stacking' between SFI and private marketplace agreements as long as growers aren't being paid twice for the same action, ensuring schemes are flexible so both markets can merge and complement one another to help farmers deliver maximum value to food production, the environment and their businesses. #OFC25 #FoodAndFarming #OxFordFarmingConference #PublicAndPrivateFunding #SustainableCropProduction
