Notice Title

Environment Support Services

Notice Description

The role of AHDB is to help improve the efficiency and competitiveness of various agriculture sectors within the UK (livestock (cattle, sheep and pigs) in England; milk in Great Britain; and cereals and oilseeds in the UK). AHDB recognises that the environment, climate change and sustainability are critically important to the future of the agricultural industry and society as a whole. Livestock sectors are under pressure from messages to eat less meat and dairy and arable farmers are having to adjust where changes in terms of use of fertilisers, chemical pest and disease control and methods of production may occur. Additionally, farmers are having to respond to both Governmental and industry-led Net Zero targets for the sector, as well as a changing landscape for agricultural support schemes with a focus on delivering environmental benefits. The AHDB Board believes that AHDB has a vital role to play in supporting its levy payers on these critical issues and providing whatever independent information, advice and practical support is not available elsewhere. AHDB are seeking a partner to help deliver their work on the environment across all 4 sectors during a critical period for the farming community. The Procurement Documents have been made directly available by AHDB by electronic means at https://defra-family.force.com/s/Welcome Opportunity title: Environment support services, Ref 2023-663. Closing date for submissions: 28th February 2024 12:00 noon
