Join us at Chatsworth House for a two-day event designed for livestock and cropping farmers looking to improve their understanding of natural capital and its role in farm businesses.

Explore key topics including soil health, human health, farm production systems, natural capital markets, supply chains and emerging finance opportunities.

With a strong focus on building natural capital, strengthening farm resilience, and improving long-term profitability, this event will provide practical insights and real-world context.

Our goal is to equip farmers with the knowledge and confidence to navigate a rapidly evolving landscape, so we can all contribute to a more sustainable and profitable future.

Agricultural communicator, podcaster, farmer and former ABC journalist Kirsten Diprose will MC the event, alongside a dynamic line-up of speakers across both days.

Morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea are included in all ticket prices.

Day 1 - Wednesday 7th October

Day One is a conference-style event featuring an outstanding line-up of speakers who will explore why natural capital matters, unpack carbon and financial natural capital, examine production in practice, and provide insights into supply chains and emerging natural capital markets. Designed to be both practical and thought-provoking, the day will help you understand how to integrate these concepts into your farm business to build resilience, drive profitability, and meet evolving consumer expectations.
