Farmers are keen to secure a more financially and environmentally sustainable future for their businesses. But many say they don’t know where to begin.
One-third of farm income comes from the annual basic payment, a
Farmers Weekly survey reveals. Although many farmers would like to reduce their reliance on this revenue, they say replacing it will be difficult.
The survey was conducted for Transition – a new initiative by
Farmers Weekly to help growers and livestock producers generate more income from the marketplace while farming in a way that delivers environmental benefits too.
