The UK Dairy Carbon Network is working with over 50 UK dairy farms to implement and assess practical, farm-ready solutions for reducing greenhouse gas emissions (GHG).
Led by AFBI and funded by DEFRA, the project is supported by a UK-wide consortium of leading research and industry partners.
Lancashire’s Mason House Farm recently hosted farmers for a UK Dairy Carbon Network event, sharing how investment, innovation and collaboration are helping drive efficiency and support the farm’s plans for future expansion.
Healthy soils underpin productive grassland and efficient nutrient use. During a UK Dairy Carbon Network workshop on 26 February 2026, farmers explored how soil structure, organic matter and simple field assessments can improve performance while reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Improving the understanding of slurry nutrient content can significantly improve fertiliser efficiency and reduce environmental losses. At a UK Dairy Carbon Network workshop on 26 February 2026, farmers explored how assessing, timing and application methods can help unlock more value from slurry.
