💙🌊Clean water is a serious issue. Farming in Protected Landscapes funding is helping farmers throughout England to provide naturally filtered water and slow the flow to reduce flooding.

💙 National Landscapes and other protected landscapes have a critical role to play in providing solutions for healthy water ecosystems. 🐟 🏊The National Landscapes Nature-based Solutions team and our partners Finance Earth today hosted a webinar exploring UK Water markets and how they can support National Landscapes. 🌊 The session covered three key areas: 1. Water Quality Markets: innovative market-based approaches to water quality improvement, with a special focus on Natural England's Nutrient Neutrality scheme. 2. Natural Flood Management: how nature-based solutions are being implemented to reduce flood risks and enhance ecosystem resilience. Successful case studies such as the Wyre Catchment Natural Flood Management Project. 3. Volumetric Water Benefits: emerging opportunities in water quantity management, including the Rivers Trusts' Replenish scheme. #cleanwater #water #purewater #nature

Have you heard of Doughnut Economics? This innovative economic model is taking the world by storm, turning our classic and reductionist supply/demand system totally on its head. Designed using the UN SDGs and planetary boundaries, the doughnut helps us to visualise and monitor how people, place, and nature interact. This economic system considers how we can use the Earth's resources sustainably; staying within its boundaries whilst providing enough for every person. We can see exciting potential for doughnut models within our National Landscapes. Watch this space 🍩 👀 Pics: Ella Riden, Mendip Hills National Landscape, Anna Field.

🌿 On Thursday, officials from DEFRA and the Wye Valley National Landscape had the pleasure of hosting colleagues from Welsh Government Llywodraeth and representatives from the Welsh Designated Landscapes. They explored the impacts of the Farming in Protected Landscapes (FiPL) scheme, which has been instrumental in supporting sustainable farming practices across England. It was inspiring to see first hand how this initiative is making a difference. During the visit to Ballingham Court Farm, the group observed the positive outcomes of FiPL, including successful agroforestry projects, farm building restorations, and essential machinery upgrades. These efforts are not just about preserving our landscapes—they’re about enhancing the livelihoods of those who steward them. Proud to be part of this ongoing work! 🌱 #SustainableFarming #ProtectedLandscapes #NationalLandscapesAssociation Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs
