Passionate about removing the family arable farm in Oxfordshire off the input treadmill Ben operates a suite of farm trials each year and has significantly changed the way that the farm operates. Recent trials involve a three year intercropping experiment as part of winning the School of Sustainable Food and Farming and Farmers Guardian net zero challenge. Ben also works as a farming consultant so understands the balance between profitability, regenerative agriculture and getting the most out of schemes and grants. Ben is currently a spokesperson for nature friendly farming in support of ELMS.
