Inspired by the Oxford Real Farming Conference, the ‘Food, Farming and Land Convention’ is set to run on February 9 and 10. Discussions on Tuesday will focus on the future of food systems while farming and land management will take centre stage on Wednesday, specifically looking at how these can deliver a more resilient future for Northern Ireland. How do we achieve our vision for NI’s environment? “The next 10 years will be critical in addressing some of the biggest challenges facing society today, with agriculture and land management playing a crucial role. But what is our vision for the future and how do we get there?” an RSPB spokesman said.
