The basics
What is a habitat bank?
A habitat bank is an area of land where habitats are created or enhanced, then secured and managed for the long term to generate Biodiversity Net Gain units. Developers buy units to meet their BNG obligation; landowners earn a long-term return from managing land for nature.
Every live Biofarm habitat bank is a registered site, managed for at least 30 years, with ongoing ecological monitoring — and new sites in the pipeline join the register as they complete.
Developer FAQs
Does location matter for BNG units?
Yes. The biodiversity gain spatial risk multiplier means units delivered closer to your development — or within the same local planning authority or National Character Area — carry more value. Each bank shows the areas it can serve.
How long are the habitats managed?
Every Biofarm habitat bank is secured and managed for a minimum of 30 years, with monitoring to evidence progress over time.
How is availability and pricing confirmed?
Unit availability, habitat types and pricing are confirmed on enquiry for your specific requirement — get in touch and we’ll talk you through it.
