ECRR PETER WILSON LECTURE

Managing land’s resources sustainably is essential to ensure the continuing availability of ‎Ecosystems Services.  Climate change, market fluctuations and Common Agricultural Policy reforms ‎influence land management decisions and thus shape how land is used.‎
Professor Gordon will outline how working in close partnership with the rural sector, scientists can help inform how ‎land is used.  Through effective engagement, the development of new innovations and collaborative ‎learning, scientists and the rural sector can ensure the future environmental quality and economic ‎prosperity of our land. ‎

Professor Iain J Gordon, Chief Executive,The James Hutton Institute.
