# Organisation and Planning Farming is a business. Farmers plan which crops they grow; where, when and how they will do it; the money they spend and the people who work with them. Farmers must comply with an ever-changing range of financial, planning, environmental, animal welfare, safety, and employment legislation. Farmers keep accurate records to make informed decisions, plan for the future and to monitor the traceability of the food they produce. Jobs may include planning: when the lambs and calves will be born; when to cut grass for silage; who will buy their crops; what's best for the environment and how they can reduce their carbon footprint. ## Linking Everything Together - Climate + - Making links with local people - Looking after nature & the environment - Nature + - Being organised & having a clear plan - Creating a healthy soil - Integrated Farm Management - Using & collecting water wisely - Growing healthy crops - Economy + - Using & creating energy wisely - Raising healthy animals - Managing pollution - Society + Supported by Sainsbury's Helping everyone eat better LEAFEd LEAF Education LEAF (Linking Environment And Farming) is a registered charity number 1045781. # Do You...
