Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

R2Kast 414 – Sarah Jane Laing on Scottish Land and Estates, rural policy and leading through Covid
Q: What is SLE, who does it work for, and what is its role in rural Scotland?
SLE is a 120-year-old membership body representing diverse rural land-based businesses, from small crofts to large estates, including professionals who support landowners. It aims to create a thriving rural Scotland by providing information, influencing policy, and advocating for land rights while balancing diverse member interests.
Tales of a Nuffield Scholar with Ben Taylor Davies
Q: What advice would you give to someone considering doing an off-field scholarship?
Don't overthink it—just start the process and commit; travel solo when possible to maximize learning from real-world interactions.
Tales of a Nuffield Scholar with Ben Taylor Davies
Q: Where would you see yourself in five years' time?
Pottering around the farm more, pursuing a cheese-making dream with Jersey cows, and guiding succession as the girls take on more responsibilities.
R2Kast 410 – Aimee Graville on life beyond supermarkets and rethinking how we buy food
Q: What is your current focus and why is it important?
I'm researching mental health in the agricultural sector with an aim to identify early signals and preventive strategies rather than waiting for crisis points, because proactive support can improve both farmer well-being and productivity.
R2Kast 408 – Thomas Gent on regenerative farming, agroforestry and carbon credits
Q: What are carbon credits and how do they work for an individual farmer?
Carbon credits are a way to monetize the carbon you add to your soil through regenerative practices; there are two markets (offset and inset within the supply chain), and credits are earned by additional carbon sequestration beyond a baseline, not just by owning existing carbon stock.
