Carbon Auditing

A rigorous & reliable assessment of the emissions from your farm

The UK Government, the National Farmers Union, major retailers and hospitality businesses are amongst those who are pledging to work towards ‘net zero’ GHG emissions to address the threat of climate change. Emissions from agriculture are also increasingly coming under scrutiny from consumers who are worried about the impact of farming on the environment. Many farms and rural businesses have started to turn this consumer concern into an opportunity, by making their ‘green’ credentials a key selling point for their produce.

To prepare your business to adapt to these new pressures and opportunities, it is important to know how your farm fits in to the bigger picture. We can offer farm carbon audits for arable, livestock or mixed farm businesses, which will provide you with a rigorous and reliable assessment of the emissions from your farm.

A carbon audit provides useful information for environmental reporting, which is now required by many major retailers and dairies. Our detailed emissions reports can also help to identify potential efficiency savings within your livestock or arable enterprise and show how your carbon footprint compares to other farms of a similar size and type to yours.

We want to ensure that the carbon audits we provide are a useful tool for farmers to improve the sustainability of their business, both in terms of environmental impact and overall profitability. To achieve that, we will take the time to talk you through the results of your report, benchmark your results against others in your sector and identify measures that will help you to bring down your emissions and improve your accounts year on year.
