Farming in Protected Landscapes - year 2 report

The Defra-funded Farming in Protected Landscapes (FiPL) programme supports farming and land management projects in England’s Protected Landscapes that make improvements for nature, climate, people and place.

The designation of our protected landscapes recognises their exceptional value for landscape, nature and cultural heritage. They have been shaped by generations of farmers and a resilient, sustainable approach to land management sits at the heart of their future.

The FiPL programme approach blends national and local priorities. Contributions to nature recovery and climate resilient businesses, heritage conservation and better access for people to enjoy our protected landscapes all feature in programme delivery.

The programme is now in its third year, and this report highlights some of the projects funded by the end of year two. The report includes the voices of farmers and land managers who have accessed the programme, what they have achieved and their experiences of the process.
