Part of Agronomy Week 2020.

Dr Foot is Head of Environment and Resource Management in AHDB. This presentation starts with the government’s commitment to net zero carbon emissions by 2050 and to other environmental improvements. In this context Jon explains the Evidence for Farming Initiative (EFI) and illustrates with an example of how agronomists and farmers can develop high quality nutrient management plans.
