Emily Padfield farms beef and sheep alongside her husband in Warwickshire. The lowland heavy-clay farm has transitioned from an 800-ewe indoor-lambing intensive sheep enterprise to one that has adopted Adaptive Multi-Paddock (AMP) grazing for its suckler herd and now outdoor-lambing flock. Diversifications include property lets, an equestrian facility and Biodiversity Net Gain projects. Emily is a 2022 Nuffield Scholar: “The Mob-Grazed Flerd: Improving soil, biodiversity and farm incomes”.
