FARM ZERO C – Striving for Carbon Neutral As part of the PCF Sustainability Report, Food Drink Ireland is proud to work with member company Carbery Group Carbery Group launched Farm Zero C in 2020. The world first project for agriculture, based on the commercial 250 acre, 250 milking cow, Shinagh Farm in Bandon, Co. Cork, Farm Zero C aims to develop a climate neutral and economically viable dairy farm that can be replicated on other farms. This scheme plays a key role in helping Carbery Group move towards its Science Based Targets ambition to be net zero for Scope 3 emissions by 2043.  There have been extremely positive results so far, including a 19% reduction in farm emissions since 2020. The farm’s carbon footprint is 30% lower than the national average and in the top 1% of farms in Ireland. It has exceeded its target of at least 10% of farm area in natural or semi-natural habitat.

Matthew Bird, commercial director at birdbros, said: “As a well-established UK producer and packer of eggs, and one that has been trading for over 55 years, we wouldn’t be where we are today without evolving to the needs of our customers and the broader world that we’re part of. “The farming industry has made huge strides on sustainability during the past decade, and we’re proud to be a part of an industry acting on several fronts, from reducing our energy consumption, to wildlife preservation and biodiversity improvements. “These are just some of the changes we’ve recently actioned, but we nurture an environment here at birdbros, where our people are encouraged to offer up new ideas where future improvements can be made, so our work here continues.” For more information on birdbros’s environmental impact, visit: https://lnkd.in/gW74V_kc #birdbroseggs #eggsupplier #eastanglia #foodproducer #birdbrosfoodco #responsiblefoodproducer

Day 4 of the ECO30 Sustainable living challenge is buying local produce and it's benefits. This is such an important challenge and this my pepper which I bought it in the market. Purchasing local produce can have a huge impact on the environment and the local economy. By supporting local farms, you're helping to: ~reduce the amount of energy and resources needed to transport food from faraway places. ~Plus, local farms often use more sustainable practices, such as organic farming, which reduces the amount of pesticides and other chemicals used on crops. ~This also helps to preserve local biodiversity and protect the health of the soil. Yeah🤗You're🫵🏾 making a difference in so many ways, simply by buying local produce! 👏 #ECO30Impact - my little step to saving mother Earth☺️🤭
