Shownotes
We are moving into a new era in agriculture - the start of the UK’s own farming policy focusing on environmental schemes and public payments for public good. We have climate change pressures influencing policy, from weather patterns and the growing focus on carbon reduction, to volatile commodity prices and new trades deals. This is all against a growing global human population which is increasingly affluent.
So welcome to the first episode of Fisher German Talks, our host is David Kinnersley, Head of Agribusiness at Fisher German. David talks to Jake Freestone from Overbury Estate about the new wave of farming practices, in particular regenerative farming, as well as the future of agribusiness. Jake is a well-known farm manager of the Overbury Estate on the Gloucester/Worcestershire border, and has become a champion in recent years of regenerative farming. He also runs a YouTube channel and is active on social media, all of which you can find at @no1FarmerJake.
