The regenagri podcast is a platform for leading industry experts to explore the future of farming and the hot topics surrounding the global movement of regenerative agriculture.

In episode 28, Rose Riley from Control Union UK, welcomes Michael Kavanagh, first-generation regenerative farmer and co-founder of the Green Farm Collective, and Andrew Christie, agronomist and agri-technologist at the James Hutton Institute, to discuss the biodiverse benefits of regenerative farming.

This episode explores Michael’s regenerative journey on his mixed arable and sheep 700ha farm in Shropshire, UK, over the last eight years and what inspired him and other likeminded award-winning regenerative farmers to create the Green Farm Collective.

Andrew also shares findings from large-scale regenerative trials in Scotland, with a diverse range of arable crops, that have just completed a second six-year rotation and how the cost-benefit analysis is showing that regenerative farming can deliver public goods as well as close the yield gap over time.
