About Us
The Knapdale Catchment Group started in July 2022 with a core group of interested farmers. The formed out of an interest of getting the community together, exploring environmental DNA (eDNA), understanding the health of the local streams, as well as increasing knowledge around erosion control structures, and nitrogen use efficiency.
