About Us

FBA is the organisation that can bridge the gap between knowledge and action, and bring projects that combine environmental awareness, increased profitability and improved production to life.

We are the experts of our region. We translate complex information – explaining legislation, new technologies and changes in best practice in a way that becomes tangible, practical actions land managers and the community can do.  We work with all parts of our community to implement evidence-based, accessible solutions that are relevant to our region.

When it comes to the environment, landholders and our local community, FBA is best placed to lead and support projects that protect the future prosperity and resilience of our land and sea.
