Joe Stanley shares his transformative journey at the Allerton Project, advocating sustainable farming practices, addressing obstacles to adoption, and emphasising the need for greater support across the food supply chain.

Professor Chris Stoate looks back on the Allerton Project’s achievements as he steps down as its Head of Research.

The annual monitoring of breeding songbirds at the Allerton Project now represents a long-term dataset spanning 33 years. Overall songbird numbers remain around 70% higher than they were at the start of the project in 1992.

I recently returned from the biennial EURAF European Agroforestry Conference in the Czech Republic. My train from Vienna was cancelled because of exceptionally severe flooding in Austria and southern Germany so that I arrived home a day late. It was a relatively minor inconvenience. The flooding resulted in fatalities, river levels rising to their highest level in a century, and the Danube being closed to shipping.

Over Agroforestry Open Weekend 2024 we will be open Friday 17th May 1.00 – 3.00pm
