Natural capital accounting
To understand the true value of your land, you’ll need to look beyond traditional balance sheets.
Natural capital accounting allows you to measure, value and monitor your land’s environmental assets using a standardised approach that’s aligned with British Standard BS 8632. It considers both the stock of your natural resources, such as soil, water, air, and ecosystems, and their condition. These natural capital accounts help landowners realise the potential of their assets, unlock new revenue streams, and future-proof rural businesses.
Natural capital accounting services
Our natural capital accounting specialists collate information into an economic report, presenting it in clear, digestible formats that show assets, maintenance costs, and operating income. From quantifying the carbon stored in your woodlands to assessing the water filtration provided by your wetlands, we'll provide you with key data to help you make informed decisions about your land's future.
Our consultants can also offer strategic advice on how your natural assets can fit into long-term business plans, as well as implementation guidance. From generating carbon credits or BNG units for sale to transitioning toward more sustainable forms of land management, we can design a tailor-made strategy to suit your goals.
For landowners who feel at home in the weeds
The more landowners understand about the quantity and quality of their natural capital assets, the better placed they will be to manage them well. Natural capital accounts provide valuable insights into the economic, social, and environmental costs and benefits associated with these assets, helping inform long-term strategic decision-making on land management practices and future land use.
