📢New paper on planting #hedgerows

How much additional soil carbon builds up after planting hedges on grassland?

We looked at hedge #soil carbon storage across regions with different geologies and climate in England

thread ⬇️ Image 1/9 First, a look at hedge planting numbers. We used @NaturalEngland data for planting and gapping-up in public schemes (#CountrysideStewardship &co)

👉 5265 km of hedges have been planted in 2004-2022
👉 2.6 times as many hedges were planted in 2019-2022 compared to 2004-2018 Image
