Environment

Certainty in a shifting landscape

Whatever your involvement in farming, you’ll be familiar with the mounting debate on the environment. Support payments linked to environmental schemes and evermore stringent controls are just some of the challenges now making a tough job tougher.

We’re on your side 

We act for farmers, conservation bodies, estates and institutional landlords across a broad range of environmental matters. So whether your case involves development schemes and renewable energy projects, or land-related nuisance claims, flooding, pollution and contamination issues, we can help. 

What’s more, if you’re a tenant farmer needing to comply with environmental legislation, we can advise how fixed equipment provision can keep you the right side of the law. We have an in-depth understanding of both landlord and tenant legislation.
