For over four decades the Organic Research Centre has been discovering and developing nature-friendly farming practices based on organic principles of health, ecology, fairness and care, with research findings not only benefitting the organic community, but also delivering value across the whole of the agricultural industry.

Over the last three months ORC have won significant research funding from both UK and the EU Governments, as well as additional funding from Trusts & Foundations and private individuals. A recent 3-year grant from the Esmee Fairbairn Foundation has secured the future of Agricology – the well-known information hub that shares sustainable agricultural practices and makes information available to those seeking to farm in a more sustainable way across all farming approaches, regardless of labels.
