and offer a reason for private investors to invest\ntheir capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In practice, that could mean land managed to\nreduce flooding on one or a small number of farms being scaled up to catchment\nor landscape level, reducing flooding over a wider area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This would then attract private funding from investors such as insurance companies or water companies to reduce costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An important element of this type of funding\nwould be to ensure all potential investors &#8211; both public and private &#8211; are\nbrought in at the very start of a project to assess the potential financial\nsupport available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The government has already talked about the\nneed for private investment in the provision of ecosystem services, and there\nare some good examples already being delivered by water companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thames Water and Severn Trent, for example,\nalready offer landowners schemes to improve water quality and biodiversity,\nreducing treatment costs and ensuring water quality standards are met while\nimproving habitats and wildlife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whatever option \u2014 or combination of options \u2014\nthe government eventually decides on, the Promar Environment team will be here\nto advise and help farmers manage any changes to their businesses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Vicki Halliwell Blended, bundled and stacked don\u2019t necessarily sound like words you\u2019d associate with money, let alone agriculture, but outside the European Union, they could be words UK farmers are soon getting used to.
