Natural Capital & Ecosystem Services

Generating sufficient value from doing the right thing

Our Natural Capital approach provides the evidence base to underpin a system that leverages the value of non-extractive land uses (including flooded land, wilded areas, below ground water storage, carbon sequestration and uncropped fields) to generate sufficient annual revenues to permanently displace traditional crop sales (in some areas of the farm). 

This is subtly different to many 'rewilding' approaches that rely heavily on secondary income streams (from tourism, for example) to sustain the desired land use.

We are already a diversified estate and now need to secure value from the underlying sustainable land use, rather than starting up yet another enterprise to offset the costs of doing the right thing.

If successful this will enable the estate to establish and retain the new system, and provide inspiration for others who may wish to adopt this type of approach on their land.
