The regenagri podcast explores the future of farming and the hot topics surrounding the global movement of regenerative agriculture with industry stakeholders.
In this first episode Harry Farnsworth, sustainable agriculture projects lead at Control Union UK, discusses biodiversity in conversation with two leading experts.
Ian Boyd, an OF&G and Pasture for Life organic farmer, who produces Hereford cattle for his family business, Cotswold Beef, draws on his own experiences to explain why it’s vital to farm in a way that works with nature and allows space for flora and fauna to thrive.
And Jenny Phelps MBE, a senior farm conservation advisor at the Farming and Wildlife Advisory Group (FWAG), outlines the importance of support and education in encouraging the transition to more regenerative approaches within farm enterprises.
Together, they also examine the need to ensure decisions relating to agricultural policy and in the wider supply chain help restore our natural ecosystems and enhance the farmed environment, whilst making it economically viable to do so.
