  • Utilise farm carbon audits and soil health reports in conjunction with the integrated farm plans, to identify and ensure a synergised approach to future farming and natural capital management.
  • Ensure farm plans can work alongside management plans for the Dartmoor Commons they have grazing rights on.
  • Assist with coordination of plans between neighbouring farms, and consultation on the proposals.
  • Identify existing sources of funding that could help fund changes and identify potential additional work for inclusion in our Landscape Recovery Plan.
