Farm ponds are essential assets in sustainable farming, offering a range of benefits from water conservation to biodiversity support. Thoughtful design, construction, and maintenance ensure their long-term functionality and ecological harmony. With proper management, farm ponds not only serve agricultural needs but also foster a balanced relationship between farming practices and the environment.
UK salt marshes host a range of salt-tolerant plants, such as Sea Lavender, Glasswort, and Sea Aster, which have adapted to thrive in saline, waterlogged conditions. These plants contribute significantly to coastal stability, water purification, and biodiversity, making the conservation of salt marsh ecosystems vital to the preservation of the UK’s natural heritage.
