@GreyBearLtd @philsturgeon One stage further would be to use the land for agriculture and forestry combined. Livestock or arable depending on the site specifics in an agroforestry system. Solar panels go on rooftops. 3 positive outcomes. @wakelyns @hanslope

A joyful weekend immersed in small scale agriculture- dal grown in the UK while celebrating its wider heritage at wonderful @wakelyns; the veggie box-producing organic farm at our local temple, and our own overflowing allotment. Nourishing in every way.

There is a growing body of evidence that if planted astutely in an agroforestry setting then 10% tree cover on a farm will not result in reduced food production. It will boost biodiversity & production of woody biomass see @Farm3Dwithtrees & https://t.co/yYHOZy5NLz @Agroforestry
