Free Training Event for Land Managers

Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park Authority is continuing with its programme of free training events for land managers to address some of the key issues and opportunities currently facing them.
 
This course will look at current issues in upland management. We will focus on sustainable systems that will enhance the condition of upland habitats in the National Park whilst benefiting a range of key species such as Black grouse. There will be a site visit looking at grazing management, with a focus on wintering of livestock.
 
Practices such as heather and bracken management and native woodland creation will also be discussed on-site, and we will look at appropriate management options available under the Rural Priorities Scheme.
