The Interreg SALFAR project which looks at “Thinking green” to create a real change of perspective in farming and food producing, a change of behaviour for the consumers of food, and, for authorities, re-thinking water management and changing policies on environment and agriculture in coastal areas, held its launch meeting in Lincoln from the 25th-27th September 2017.
Martin Collison spoke at the launch on the economic value which work at the University of Lincoln has shown could be at risk if saline intrusion into flood risk zone 3 in Lincolnshire caused a loss of agricultural and food production.
