Summary

The Responsible Wool Standard provides the opportunity to extend biodiversity management at a landscape-scale across the Falklands agricultural sector but is currently hampered by limited expertise capacity to meet the schemes environmental criteria. The project will provide practical workshop training, written Falkland specific guidance, achievable monitoring protocols and improved Biodiversity Management Plan templates to participating farms. With 92% of the Falklands’ land area currently farmed and less than 3% protected this will extend biodiversity management beyond the protected area network
