ELMS is anticipated to drive the greatest shift in agriculture and land management decision-making since the post-World War Two productivist agendas of the mid-20th Century. Its focus on climate change adaptation and mitigation, biodiversity regeneration and sustainable food production, aligns with our own goals of supporting the commercial environment and agri-industry.

“There is risk associated with the introduction of such a major policy change. ELMS-Exchange will help to mitigate that, steering our research capacity to provide future environmental intelligence that is aligned with the demands of both policy and industry.” Professor Will Blake
