Hello!
I am a student at the University of Birmingham researching Farmers' perception of flood management. Below is the web address for a short questionnaire on this topic and I would really appreciate it if you could take a moment to complete it!

Well I've done it but it is very very simplistic for a University project! 'Intensive' farming can cover a massive range of practices and there is not a mention of land drainage, organic matter in soils, .....

Thank you so much for completing the survey! Yes, you are right it is a little simplistic; I initially carried out a longer questionnaire which did mention those aspects. I then wanted to gather further data on fewer topics in this questionnaire to follow up some findings from the first survey...and wanted to keep it short! Thank you also to all others who have so far completed this, I really appreciate it!!

Done. As Princess Pooper mentioned, "intensive farming" is a very broad subject.

Extensive farming is the problem around here. Why bother cleaning ditches when you are ranching? Then the little guy who doesn't ranch, gets flooded out!
