Defra's key objective for the grant funding is:
To provide resilience support to farmers and land managers to help them prepare for, and adjust to, the Agricultural Transition by addressing the opportunities it presents and the impacts it could have. The project will also monitor the impact and value for money of this resilience support.
Defra aims for the project to deliver direct benefits to the farmers and land managers who are the beneficiaries of this project by enabling them to:
i. Fully understand the changes that are about to happen ii. Identify how, where and when they may need to adapt their business model and resilience as a result iii. Access tailored support to address these changes in a timely fashion
