We are thrilled to announce the launch of a new podcast series ‘Fisher German Talks’ with the first episode focussing on the future of farming, presented by one of our Partners and Head of Agribusiness, David Kinnersley.
In the first episode, which launched on Friday 25 February, David was joined by Jake Freestone, who is a Farm Manager at Overbury Enterprises, a 2013 Nuffield scholar, YouTuber and was named Farmer’s Weekly Environmental Champion and Arable Innovator at the British Farming Awards 2021.
Tackling climate change is one of, if not the biggest challenge the world faces, and in this episode David and Jake discussed the future of British farming and how farmers have found themselves on the front line of the fight against climate change. With discussions around growing climate pressures, regenerative agriculture and the risks and challenges faced by British farmers, this interesting and informative episode was a great way to launch our podcast series.
The podcast series is available on all popular platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music, Google Podcasts and Amazon Music and can be found by searching ‘Fisher German Talks’. Comprising six episodes released fortnightly, the series will look at the part we will play in the journey to achieve net zero by 2050. This will include where we are now and where we need to be in the future, including how we make agriculture sustainable, and how we ensure we are complying with new biodiversity net gain legislation.
Each episode will be hosted by a Fisher German expert who will be joined by a guest speaker to discuss the topical issues that our industries are facing today.
The second episode will go live on Friday 11 March with Alex Watts, a Senior Surveyor who specialises in natural capital and has been heavily involved in the development of The Green Offset, a bespoke brokerage platform which connects parties who are looking for an area to site a natural capital asset. Alex will talk about biodiversity net gain and will be joined by David Lowe from Warwickshire County Council.
