Wye Soils
Wye Soils was a project delivered by the Wye and Usk Foundation, funded by Welsh Government’s Natural Flood Management Fund via Powys County Council. This project allowed WUF to scope opportunities for a catchment market in the Upper Wye, to pay landowners to farm for water and reduce downstream flood risk. The catchment market would be known as Resilient Rivers Upper Wye and build on the learning from the development of the Resilient Rivers Monnow market.
