The river Otter is classified as "Poor Ecological Status" by the Environment Agency. The Otter should epitomise England’s ecologically rich and diverse river habitats.We are delighted to welcome Mr. Iorwerth (or "Yog") Watkins from the West Country Rivers Trust to talk to us about Farming Practices and how they affect the river quality.
Iorwerth is an experienced farm advisor and catchment officer. In his advisory role, Iorwerth can draw on experience gained from working for the Environment Agency, FWAG and growing up on a farm. Iorwerth has already worked on several of the farm clusters work and is currently actively involved as a technical advisor on both the Heaths to Sea and Luppitt Landscape Recovery projects. Being joint lead on the East Devon CaBA means Iorwerth is known by many of the stakeholders involved here and aware of how this project will fit within/alongside other active projects in this area.
So, please do join us on the 22nd January at 7pm to hear from Iorwerth, and also to learn more about what the OVA is doing in this important area.
