The EIP-AGRI Focus Group on High Nature Value (HNV) – Farming Profitability brought together 20 experts from 15 EU Member States and a diverse range of backgrounds. They explored the potential for making effective use of the EIP-AGRI to improve the long-term viability of High Nature Value (HNV) farming systems and thereby stop/reverse the decline in HNV farmland currently observed. The initial scope of the Focus Group was intended to be - how to improve the profitability of HNV farming without losing the HNV characteristics? However, the Focus Group members pointed out this was a rather narrow perspective and actually part of a bigger question of - how to improve the social and economic sustainability of HNV farming without losing the HNV characteristics?
This report gives an overview of the group’s conclusions and recommendations. Spanish translation courtesy of the RRN (Red Rural Nacional)
