Episode 1: Can We Farm Without Harm? The Hot Potato Podcast
-
- Näringslära
Welcome to the first episode of the Hot Potato Podcast: a series that grabs the burning issue of climate change with both hands and asks how regenerative agriculture can help solve the problem.
Our food supply is heavily reliant on industrial agriculture, but current intensive farming methods cannot be sustained in the long term. Techniques used to maximize food production are having a negative effect on climate, biodiversity and soil health. We need our food supply to be sustainable in the face of an ever-changing world. So, today, we are getting to the root of it all and asking: How can we farm without harm?
Joining the discussion is Nicole Masters and Yves Leclerc.
Nicole is an independent agroecologist, systems thinker, storyteller and educator. With over twenty years of practical and theoretical experience in regenerative agriculture, she knows a thing or two about soil health!
Yves is a biologist and agronomist with a PhD in Plant Physiology and Biotechnology. In his role at McCain, he is accountable for managing the company's Smart and Sustainable Farming program and is responsible for establishing their network of 'Farms of the Future' - commercial farms that aim to demonstrate the environmental and economic benefits of Regenerative Agriculture.
