Old Knowledge, New Innovations: The farming scholars taking on the world
Anna Hill meets international Nuffield Farm Scholars in the UK to exchange ideas about the future of farming worldwide.
Anna Hill joins more than a hundred young international farmers who are visiting the UK as part of their Nuffield Farming Scholarship programme.
They take a year out of farming to travel and investigate a project which they want to put into action. Anna hears about cutting carbon in Australia鈥檚 beef herd; regenerative farming in Zimbabwe; getting Japanese dairy cows out into woodland pasture and dairy farming with no milking parlour in the UK.
The scholars also visit historic Holkham Hall in Norfolk, to see how an agricultural innovator two hundred years ago was finding a fresh way forward.
Presented and produced by Anna Hill for 大象传媒 Audio Bristol.
