Established in 1994 the FACTS scheme is the body responsible for both setting and maintaining standards of advice given by individuals on farm. Over time, the scheme has gained credibility within the industry as well as with other bodies such as farm assurance schemes, government regulators and environmental bodies.
Although a voluntary scheme, the growth of FACTS membership reflects how the agricultural industry recognises the importance and benefit of qualified advice to promote farming systems that optimise crop nutrition while protecting the quality of soil, water, air and farm biodiversity Today, more than 2,000 FACTS Qualified Advisers (FQAs) form a strong network across the UK, reflecting the industry’s commitment to continually improving nutrient resource management on farm.
