Reducing Inputs: An Integrated Approach

Join Soil Association Scotland at Balbirnie Home Farms in Fife, where you will explore what a whole-farm, integrated approach looks like, hear about Balbirnie’s journey and the factors which influenced the move to an integrated approach.

They will highlight how practices such as reducing tillage, diversifying rotations and using cover crops have helped build soil fertility, boost biodiversity and increase farm resilience whilst reducing reliance on external inputs.
