44. Stories of Life, Land and a Farming Revolution, with Sarah Langford

My guest this week is Sarah Langford, author of Rooted: Stories of Life, Land and a Farming Revolution. She discusses how:

• The UK’s policy of “public money for public good” is helping farmers to reclaim their role as stewards of the land
• We can learn lessons for transforming the food sector from farmers struggling with the transition to regenerative agriculture
• Reforming the agricultural system needs to simultaneously tackle public health, biodiversity loss and food security
• Livestock farming (and the diets that supports this) needs to change, but cellular agriculture and precision fermentation have challenges
• It is a myth that there is a trade-off between food production (yields) and nature conservation in regenerative farming
