Each half-day workshop includes an in-field demonstration of how to assess soil structure, how to correct damage and maintain effective soil drainage. Cross compliance issues related to soils will also be covered.
Speakers include Philip Wright, of Wright Resolutions, an expert in soil management, with specialists from the Farming Advice Service, the Environment Agency, and Climate East Midlands.
