BIODIVERSITY
NET GAIN
BNG is a UK planning requirement that ensures development leaves biodiversity in a measurably better state, typically delivering at least a 10% uplift in habitat value.
At Southend Farm, we are going significantly further, we are transforming land into a diverse mosaic of habitats that support long-term ecological recovery.
Our habitats include:
- Species-rich wildflower meadows
- Native hedgerows and ecological corridors
- Ponds, reed beds, and wetland systems
- Traditional orchards
- Woodland and scrub habitats

OUR ECOLOGICAL WORK
We offer in-house habitat improvements and continuing management for the lifetime of the scheme with a dedicated ecologist, habitat management and monitoring, extensive baseline and ongoing surveys.
Southend Farm has allocated about 30 hectares for potential BNG projects. The farm has had an ecological baseline study done on the farmland in 2023.
We present the opportunity of purchasing Biodiversity Net Gain units within the Chichester District and beyond through the enhancement of arable land.
