FARMERS and growers will be surveyed on how much water they use, what they do to conserve it and how they could be affected by climate change.
The NFU is launching its Water Survey, which takes place every five years, to get an up-to-date picture of water use on farms. After three unusually dry winters and this year’s spring which was the driest since records began, the results should give an idea of the way farmers have responded.
Although the survey is aimed primarily at the NFU’s 55,000 members, the union is encouraging the wider industry to take part and is running a prize draw.
The survey is available on www.nfuonline.com or paper copies can be ordered by calling 02476 858896.
