A new study, led by researchers from CCRI, explores farmer and stakeholder attitudes towards vaccinating cattle and badgers against bovine tuberculosis.

This project evolved as a farmer-led research initiative to address local evidence gaps identified by farmer partners in Powys wanting to enhance the long-term viability and sustainability of their farms.

A three-year monitoring project will assess how HLS and CS agreements contribute toward environmental outcomes across multiple scheme objectives.

Prof. Janet Dwyer and Dr Amr Khafagy contributed to strategic development work within the Trade and Agriculture Directorate of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.

Conducted in five case study areas across England and Wales, this project set out to build an understanding of farmers’ current and future willingness to vaccinate, or facilitate the vaccination of, cattle and badgers against bovine Tuberculosis (bTB) in Great Britain.

This project aimed to develop an understanding of what AB14 plots are typically delivering in terms of outcomes for the natural environment and how agreement holders/land managers are managing their AB14 harvested low input cereal crops.

A new agri-tech partnership for Gloucestershire has been established, with Professor Julie Ingram involved in a research capacity role.

In November, CCRI researchers Julie Ingram and Jane Mills will be hosting a farmer event at the Royal Welsh Winter Fair, one of the finest prime stock shows in Europe.

Since 2012, the CCRI has been involved in an on-going series of themed research projects aimed at supporting the development and implementation of Natural England’s agri-environment schemes.
