Summary
This 2025 Monitor Farm Network event in Pembrokeshire, facilitated by extension specialist David Purdy, represents a farmer peer-learning initiative on soil health management rather than primary research. It reflects the advisory and knowledge-exchange function of the Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB) in translating soil science into practical guidance for mixed farming systems typical of south-west Wales. The activity exemplifies the United Kingdom's informal knowledge infrastructure supporting soil management practice change amongst farming communities.
