  • R2Kast 280 - Ben Taylor-Davies on Regenerative Agriculture, Replacing Death with Life, and Livestock Diversity
    Today we welcome Ben Taylor-Davies onto the R2Kast. Known widely as RegenBen, Ben brings a refreshing perspective to regenerative agriculture, defining it as “replacing death with life.” This philosophy underpins his approach to farming and land management, where the focus is on reviving ecosystems and creating a balance between productivity and sustainability. 🌱Ben shares his five pillars of regenerative agriculture, which serve as a foundation for his work: no disturbance, living roots, soil armour, diversity, and the introduction of livestock. He explains how implementing these principles helps improve soil health, boost biodiversity, and create resilient agricultural systems that benefit both farmers and the environment. 🐄His work extends far beyond the UK, as Ben has played a significant role in regenerative farming projects across the globe. From consulting on soil health in Africa to promoting biodiversity in Europe and beyond, his global perspective enriches his approach and highlights the universal importance of sustainable agriculture. 🌍In addition to his innovative farming practices, Ben delves into how his ADHD has shaped his approach to life and work. He describes it as his “superpower,” enabling him to think outside the box and find creative solutions to complex challenges in agriculture. His openness about mental health provides valuable insight and inspiration for others in the farming community. 🧠Ben also reflects on the importance of reconnecting people with the land and promoting sustainable practices that ensure the long-term health of both farms and communities. His passion for educating others and advocating for change shines through, making this episode a must-listen for anyone interested in the future of farming. 🌍Enjoy!Thanks to Howden Rural for the support.#BenTaylorDavies #RegenBen #RegenerativeAgriculture #R2Kast #HowdenRural #SustainableFarming #SoilHealth #Biodiversity #ADHDSuperpower #MentalHealthAwareness #LivestockIntegration #DiverseFarming #AgricultureInnovation #FarmToFork #ResilientFarming #EnvironmentalStewardship #FarmingCommunity #RegenerativePrinciples #GlobalAgriculture #SustainablePractices #FutureOfFarming #ConnectingWithLand Hosted on Acast.

  • R2Kast 277 - Jaz Williams on Farming, Social Media, and Global Adventures
    Today we welcome Jaz Williams onto the R2Kast. Jaz shares her unique journey in agriculture, from her roots in a dairy farming family to her global adventures as a contract shepherd and wool handler. Her passion for livestock and dedication to learning have taken her from lambing sheds in the UK to remote farms in Shetland, the Falklands, and Australia. 🌍Just two hours before this episode was recorded, Jaz celebrated a major milestone: the release of her first children’s book, The Tale of Timothy TwigPig. She talks about the inspiration behind the story and how it reflects her love for farming and storytelling, blending her experiences with a creative outlet to connect with younger audiences. 📚Jaz also discusses the challenges of stepping into the farming world without formal agricultural education. Her resilience and hands-on experiences demonstrate that determination and a willingness to learn can break barriers. Whether it’s contract lambing or tackling roles in calf rearing, her story inspires those looking to join the industry without a traditional background. 💪Social media plays a significant role in Jaz’s life, connecting her to a vibrant community of farmers worldwide. She shares how Instagram has become a platform for celebrating wins, sharing challenges, and building friendships with like-minded individuals. Her openness and authenticity have created a network of support and collaboration across the sector. 📲Beyond farming, Jaz reflects on the value of independence, finding her own space in life, and building a balance between her personal and professional goals.
