In this short film, NFFN farmer Patrick Barker from Suffolk shares how he reduces pesticide use by creating habitats for beneficial predators.

At Lodge Farm, farmer Patrick Barker reduces his reliance on pesticides through habitat creation and natural solutions. By encouraging biodiversity, he shows how farming with nature can protect crops, support wildlife and prepare for the challenges of climate change, all while improving profitability. 

Watch Patrick’s story in our new video and explore how similar approaches could work on your farm.

For more practical ideas, our Practical Guide to Integrated Pest Management offers tailored advice for both arable and livestock farmers. The booklet is free to download for NFFN members - and membership itself is also free.

This film and booklet have been made possible thanks to the generous support of Neal’s Yard Remedies, helping us share nature-friendly solutions that benefit farming, food and the environment.
