## Summary

The Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB) has released a tender for "Environment Support Services" aimed at improving the efficiency and competitiveness of the livestock and cereal sectors in the UK. The tender seeks a partner to assist in environmental initiatives across all sectors during a critical farming period. The closing date for submissions is 28th February 2024, with a contract period running from 1st June 2024 to 31st May 2025.

This procurement opportunity focused on environmental services is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can provide support in the agriculture industry. AHDB, the buying organisation, has outlined a need for independent advice and practical assistance in response to evolving climate change and sustainability challenges. Businesses offering expertise in environmental management and sustainability practices would be well-suited to compete in this open procedure tender process.

## Notice

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
