Farm Resilience Report

Our new research unpicks the detail of how 1200 farmers are coping with an increasingly changing world. Using data gathered by Soil Association Exchange.

Understanding what the resilience landscape looks like on UK farms.

A note from our CEO

The farming sector is under pressure from every direction. Climate volatility, input cost shocks, policy uncertainty, and tightening supply chain demands to name just a few. And the farms that supply our food are suddenly finding that they need to be resilient to all of them at once. 

This report draws on data from 1,200 farms across approximately 2% of UK agricultural land — one of the largest farm-level environmental datasets of its kind in the UK. The findings are both urgent and, in important ways, hopeful.

Soil Association Exchange CEO
