Norfolk farm gave 500 acres back to nature; plant diversity doubled in 3 years

Wild Ken Hill’s groundbreaking rewilding initiative revealed a remarkable surge in plant diversity, with species nearly doubling within just three years. This transformation of former arable land led to a fourfold increase in plant variety, predominantly fueled by grazing animals that enhanced the ecosystem's structure. The surge in vegetation signals promising benefits for local insect and bird populations, showcasing nature's impressive capacity for rejuvenation.
