This handbook has been produced to improve understanding of fens and how they function, to explain why fens need management and to provide best practice guidance.

This is part of our Good Practice Guidance for Habitats and Flora, produced by Richard Jefferson, Dominic Price, Iain Diack, Steve Coates and Andy Mclay.
