  • Productive Sustainability
    Feb 22 2025
    On this podcast we explore the role of productivity in sustainability, and why it's important to try and make existing farmland as productive possible in order to protect global biodiversity and lower emissions on per unit basis. We explore why measurement systems that measure emissions a total figure or on a per hectare or per acre basis distort the numbers and why concepts such as rewilding where agricultural land is removed from production and restored to a natural state may actually lead to increased emissions and less biodiversity.

  • Sharing the Risk with Invest in Farming
    Nov 24 2024

    Today we're talking with Nicci from Invest in Farming Co-operative.


    IIF (Invest in Farming Co-operative) is revolutionizing agricultural investment by connecting consumers directly with farmers through a user-friendly app. This platform allows individuals to invest in specific agricultural assets—such as a row of grapevines, a single cow, or a basket of oysters—without the need to own a farm. By preselling a portion of their produce, farmers gain immediate access to capital, enhancing cash flow and reducing reliance on traditional banking systems. Investors, in turn, can watch their investments grow and receive returns within a few months. Operating as a member-based co-operative, IIF fosters a closer connection between those who produce food and those who consume it, benefiting both farmers and consumers alike.
