Modern Farming, Food and Health

Heather Barrett-Mold introduces Poul Hovesen, Chairman of Catalyst Farming; Sarah Calcutt, CEO of City Harvest and Jane Anderson CBE, Past Master Apothecary in a panel discussion on the implications of climate change on farming and food production and what we can do to improve our health in parallel with our drive towards Net Zero GHG emissions in the sector. The concept of this webinar was to make the connection between farming, the production of food, its distribution, waste and impact on health. Alongside efforts to reduce carbon emissions, and the impact we humans have on our planet, has come increased anxiety about food. the video explores the growing understanding of the importance of the soil and the human microbiome and how modern farming methods and diet can improve both.
