Non Chemical Bracken Management Webinar
Innovative Farmers are currently funding two field labs exploring non-chemical bracken control. These on-farm trials explore practical alternatives to chemical spraying, including machinery and livestock grazing, supported by researchers and land managers.
This webinar marks the launch of a new Bracken Management Learning Network, bringing together farmers, researchers, and advisors to share experiences, discuss early findings from the two existing bracken field labs, and build a community of practice around sustainable bracken control.
Speakers and panellists:
In this webinar, Innovative Farmers will be joined by the trialists and other members of the group, including:
- Tabitha Acton- Farming Advisor, Soil Association
