Farmers mutual for accessing environmental markets


Ethical Fields specialists in Community Wealth Building are catalysing the Protected Habitat Farmers Mutual.

Protected Habitat Farmers Mutual is unlocking the opportunity for every Australian farm to protect our ecosystems.
3 Things Farmers Want To Know:
1. This isn’t a new broker in the environmental markets. A mutual is different. By individual farmers co-owning the mutual, and using the services, each farmer gets scale and reduced costs when accessing environmental markets. A mutual avoids the corporate middlemen – and their fees – meaning the farmer earns more for doing the stewardship.
2. This isn’t about locking up land under permanent covenants. There are plenty of term agreements (10 – 15 years).
3. This isn’t about locking animals out either. Every Protected Habitat agreement refers to “best practice” and if that includes grazing for example, then, that is encouraged.
