Factory farms

Is regenerative agriculture the answer to the problems caused by factory farms, or might modern forms of food production have an important role to play in the future of food in England? In this episode, Lewis Bassett speaks to: Matt Chatfield, sheep farmer and advocate of alternative farming techniques; the nutritionist Lucy Williamson; the historian David Edgerton; the farmer and director of the Soil Association Liz Bowles, Oxford based climate scientist Michael Clark; author and journalist Aaron Bastani; and Elena Walden from the Good Food Institute. Tess Kelly, a spokesperson for Quorn, tells us about their ambitions to see the world eat less meat. And the author Pen Vogler and celebrity chef Tom Kerridge explain how factory food and class intersect in England.

This show was produced by Lewis Bassett with music from Forest DLG.
