Inspiring farmers to safeguard soils

PROSOILplus is a farmer-led research initiative to safeguard soil and optimise nutrient use efficiency on livestock farms. We support farmer networks that act locally and inspire regional farmer groups.

The project supports farmers to work together to develop innovative soil management practices. These innovative practices are linked to IBERS research activities for scientific validation.

The aim is to increase the profitability and resilience of the agricultural supply chain. This is achieved by developing and adapting innovative soil management practices and technologies.

PROSOILplus addresses five focus areas linked to soil:

  • Managing and protecting landscapes
  • Conserving and enhancing biodiversity; mitigating climate change
  • Managing soils to help conserve carbon stocks and reduce erosion
  • Supporting co-operative work that requires technology change
  • Reducing water surface run-off and managing water to help reduce flood risk
