How we can help you with Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG)
We work alongside developers and agencies to ensure schemes meet their BNG requirements.
The most cost-effective way to achieve BNG is to enhance or create habitat on-site or by using nearby off-site landholdings. One method is to improve existing grassland through overseeding and management practices such as cut-and-collect, as well as the creation of new wildflower meadows. Our fleet of agricultural machinery allows us to carry out seeding works on all scales.
Planting diverse species, woodland and native hedgerows can assist BNG in the right areas, as well as maintaining and improving existing woodland areas. Our planting and tree surgery teams can meet your woodland creation and maintenance requirements.
