In this episode, Tim and Ryan head to meet Toby Simpson and Stuart Tabernor who farm in Northamptonshire and Cambridgeshire - to delve into the topic of Regenerative farming ahead of Groundswell next month. We cover how regenerative farming has helped their farm businesses, natural assets and biodiversity.

We explore their thoughts on natural assets, such as soil structure and waterways, and how catch cropping, cover cropping and longer rotations are all intertwined and support one another. They share their thoughts on noticeable increases in species biodiversity, how to tackle invasive species while not always having to use herbicides and the do’s and don’ts of farming regeneratively that they’ve learnt so far.

The episode finishes in real Oakbank style with not so local cheese and some quick-fire questions to round off a captivating discussion.

A real must listen for farmers from all practises, gamekeepers, conservationists and anyone else with a real passion for positive change in the countryside to produce the wildlife-rich landscapes we all want to see.
