AIB wanted to enable farmers to maximise sustainability by changing how they see one of our greatest resources: grass. So they used grass to grow a book where each word, diagram and even the pages themselves are shaped by grass roots as they grow. The book contains a set of guidelines for farmers, with ten tangible lessons and ten pieces of practical advice, all designed to maximise sustainability and increase profitability. The book lays out a practical plan of action, and symbolises the power of our natural resources.
