Cambridge Conservation Forum / RELU 2008 Summer Symposium
Future farming in the UK: global implications for society and biodiversity
New Hall, Cambridge Thursday 3rd July 2008
Background and aim
UK agriculture could change radically over the next few decades as a result of global economic development, population growth, climate change, technological advances (e.g. biofuels) and rising oil prices. Indeed such international linkages have been illustrated recently by events, such as droughts in Australia and increasing biofuel production, that have led to significant increases in wheat prices.
