Fir Farm Conference: A roadmap to sustainable farming

Organiser's description (via the Sustainable Food Trust)

The Sustainable Food Trust’s Food and Farming Conference, hosted at Fir Farm, is back again this year, bringing together leaders from the farming, business, finance, NGO, research and policy sectors.

The event will include keynote talks and panel sessions exploring the urgent need for a radical transformation of our food and farming systems in response to the challenges of climate change, food security, biodiversity loss and poor public health.

We hope it will provide a platform for knowledge sharing, discussion, and informed action.

• Climate, nature and health: How can farming respond to the challenges?
• Feeding Britain: How should I farm? What should I eat?
