Farmers have united to form a new alliance to protect and enhance wildlife and the countryside, while also maintaining profits from their food production.

The Waveney Hundred Farming Group will link the Broads National Park, external with the Suffolk and Essex Coast and Heaths National Landscape, external, which was formerly known as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The group is made up of 23 farmers who collectively own or manage nearly 19,000 acres (7,677 hectares) of land between the River Waveney and River Blyth.

    Cool. If this works for them hopefully it encourages others to do the same.
