Our guest on this episode is Dr. Liz Genever, who is an independent sheep and beef consultant. She talks about:  The place for cows and sheep on the UK’s 65% of land that only has grass on it. Making animal agriculture more efficient to reduce emissions and cost per kilo of food. Increasing welfare both because farmers like to care for their animals, and to improve animal health for meat quality. How farmers are improving their communication with the media to explain how much of what you hear about UK animal agriculture is wrong. Being proud of UK agricultural output which is high welfare and high quality. Videos of mistreatment of animals. FaceTime a farmer. How we should have an honest discussion about best use of our land. The nutrient cycle and depletion in soil. Plus we get Liz’s dog’s hot take on things.  Remember to subscribe to the show and leave a five star review.

Dr. Liz Genever - On Why We Should Love Our Farmers

Born and raised on the right side of the Fen and far enough away from the smell of cabbages in Lincolnshire, Liz Genever grew up to be a significant driver of knowledge transfer in England.  A force of nature within AHDB Beef &amp; Lamb for a number of years, she was key to helping get the Ram Compare and Challenge Sheep projects up and running; she was one of the first specialists to seriously talk about rotational grazing and she even set up a project that introduced Farmax to the UK. Anyone who has been to the Sheep Breeders Roundtable will be under no illusions that she might have organised it all. She has recently left AHDB to start up on her own as an independent consultant.   An hour and ten minutes wasn't really enough but hope you enjoy it.
