Latest news, views and updates from us here at SAOS.
Scottish farmers produce quality beef and lamb from the grass and rough grazing which make up around 80% of Scotland’s agricultural land which is not suitable for cereal, fruit or vegetable production. Scotland’s grassland acts as a carbon sink and grazing animals provide habitats for wildlife and help to maintain the landscape.
Our CarbonPositive project is looking at gathering and using data in new ways.
SAOS’s CarbonPositive initiative aims to demonstrate the positive side of the carbon ‘balance sheet’ for the farming industry in Scotland. Through a greater understanding of agriculture and climate change, we are working to drive positive change and to position farmers as a key part of the climate change solution.
