Natural Capital

Unlock income from ecosystem services 

Farmers and landowners have always stewarded important natural assets, but new revenue streams are emerging from providing ‘ecosystem services’ across the private and public sector. 

Whether it’s enhancing biodiversity, carbon sequestration, nutrient offsetting or flood mitigation, the natural capital market is a key way to generate income, while fulfilling your desire to help the environment.

We can help you value and monetise the full potential of your natural capital. This could involve dealing with companies looking to invest green finance or helping you access government support offered under its ‘public money for public goods’ remit.

Our team includes environment experts, ecologists, planners and farm business consultants so has experience in everything from woodland creation and cover-crop management to river catchment protection and floodplain management. 

So if you’re a land manager keen to more effectively capture payments within your existing system or look at potential options to make a bigger shift, such as to regen or rewilding, get in touch.

We can help you:

• Establish and manage farmer-clusters and joined-up approaches at a landscape scheme 
• Calculate your natural capital ‘baseline’
• Model different options for protecting, enhancing and expanding this
• Understand the environmental ‘market’ 
• Find and deal with a private-sector partner 
• Access government subsidies and grants 
• Project manage schemes on the ground
