Overview

Upland Farming for Net Zero, developed in partnership with the Farm Carbon Toolkit, will develop your knowledge of where and how greenhouse gases are emitted, captured and stored on an upland farm. Farm visits and theory sessions will enable you to compare farming practices and land management options, with climate impact in mind. You will complete a farm carbon audit and make practical recommendations for actions towards net zero emissions. Small group taught sessions will take place online, in-person at our Ambleside campus, and at upland farms in Cumbria.
