COP30, climate change and farmers, virtual-reality pig abattoir and Chris Brant Award
The AG Show team are hanging out with some of their AHDB colleagues in this episode, starting with environment guru Rachael Madeley-Davies, fresh back from COP30 in Brazil. Rachael’s big message? Farmers aren’t just part of the conversation on climate change - they’re absolutely key to it.
Then things get a little techy as Charlotte Forkes-Rees and Hannah Clarke strap on VR headsets to take a virtual walk through a pig abattoir. Yep, you read that right - VR meets farming!
And finally, we catch up with Zanita Markham to find out what earned her the prestigious Chris Brant Award at the National Pig Awards. Spoiler: it’s because she's ace (though we are biased)!
