Nitrogen – With rising costs, growing limited availability and well documented impact on the environment, farmers want to reduce the use, but can the sector facilitate, adapt to, and support this move? Chaired by Dr Alastair Leake (Director of Policy at the Game & Wildlife Conservation Trust) , this panel session will discuss the impacts of reduced nitrogen use and hear first-hand how farmers are moving away from high input systems, as well as discussing learnings from projects including the “Living Mulch” Field Lab (funded by Innovative Farmers and Organic Arable).
