Nature positive outcomes refers to the stocks of natural assets – such as soil, water, vegetation and biodiversity – that support life, production and economic activity. Understanding these assets helps landholders and organisations make more informed decisions over time.
What are nature positive outcomes?
Nature positive outcomes includes the ecological systems and resources that generate value, whether directly or indirectly. This can include productive soils, pollination, water cycling, habitat integrity and vegetation health.
Why measurement matters
What gets measured is more likely to be managed well. Measuring nature positive outcomes help identify trends, risks, strengths and opportunities, especially where land performance, biodiversity outcomes or reporting expectations are involved.
Why it matters for business as well as land
Nature positive outcomes is not only relevant to farmers. Businesses are increasingly being asked to understand how nature connects to risk, resilience, supply chains and long-term value creation.
Nature positive outcomes provides a practical framework for understanding the value of healthy natural systems and integrating them into real-world land and business decisions.
