Description

The aim of this contract is to compliment the New Agricultural Landscapes Project's (NAL) monitoring surveys of physical changes across NAL study areas through gathering and evaluating data about the farmers' attitudes to and perceptions of their landscapes.

This specification is for a contract to plan, undertake, evaluate and report on a set of interviews with farmers located across ten study areas in England capable of being repeated at future intervals. The work is part of a wider fifth NAL survey taking place in 2016/17. It will need to relate back to the method and findings of farmer interviews undertaken during the first and third NAL surveys in 1972 and 1994 as well as ensuring the new survey is relevant to current issues and provides a good basis for future survey
