The Catchment Sensitive Farming Programme (CSF) provides advice to farmers to reduce diffuse water and air pollution from agriculture as well as to reduce natural hazards and support farms through agricultural transition. CSF operates through a network of locally based farm advisers and partner organisations to deliver Defra’s 25-year plan ambitions for water quality, air quality and sustainable water management through nature-based solutions. The primary focus of the role is to work with and provide on the ground advice to farmers. The role-holder will also work with partner organisations, the agricultural industry, and colleagues from the Defra group to build our capabilities to deliver a range of priority outcomes for NE. The post holder will be required as part of regular, day-to-day work to visit farms and walk over fields and around farm buildings within the geography of the relevant area. All CSF farm advisers will have the opportunity to enrol in a structured training programme.
