What about seafood? The role of seafood in UK food systems transformation

This paper argues that seafood should play a more prominent role in debates about food systems transformation in the UK. We discuss the connections between seafood and the broader food system, and consider seafood’s potential role in food systems transformation in the UK.  We unpack the opportunities this presents, as well...

Mainstreaming biodiversity in forestry

Country case studies
Forests harbour a large proportion of the Earth’s terrestrial biodiversity, which continues to be lost at an alarming rate. Deforestation is the single most important driver of forest biodiversity loss with 10 million ha of forest converted every year to other land uses, primarily for agriculture. Up to 30 percent...

Agroforestry policy development in England: a question of knowledge transference

Agroecology as a concept for reimagining food systems has grown in popularity and is now used in several food and agriculture policy frameworks around the world. While there is a significant body of research around agroecology, its origins, applications, and as a much-needed transition pathway to sustainable food systems, there is limited understanding...

Agroforestry in England: policies, land ownership and a just transition

Right now, agroforestry makes up only 3% of the UK's land use. For a better climate, this needs to be scaled up. But first we need effective policies. To accomplish that, AGROMIX hosted a policy workshop in England this past January with farmers, policy makers and major landowners. Watch this...

Reflections on non-extractive participatory research for territorial food system transformation

Non-extractive and power-equalising research involves different knowledge holders (e.g. researchers and farmers) in a process of close cooperative engagement, jointly producing new knowledge, with mutual learning. As such, this form of cooperative enquiry is a significant reversal from dominant roles, locations, and ways of knowing. I offer some examples and reflections on...

Regenerative farming shift could reduce UK climate emissions, say experts

Organic farming methods, which use fewer pesticides and store more carbon in soil, are becoming more popular
There is growing momentum behind a shift to ‘regenerative’ agriculture in the UK, which can help to mitigate the climate crisis, say leading experts in the sector. “More and more people are seeing other farmers doing it [regenerative farming] and are happier for it,” said John Cherry, who founded Groundswell, the UK’s...

Localized Routes to Market - Understanding the Community Benefits of Local Organic Food

One of our food system's main challenges is the inadequate relationship between the cost of production and production factors as a whole. Therefore, food production and distribution systems are often at a disadvantage to local producers. New research reveals the benefits for farmers and growers, local suppliers, citizens, and the environment...

Orkney Boreray Community becomes Scotland’s 2nd Slow Food Presidium

Orkney Boreray Sheep is named the second Slow Food Presidium in the whole of Scotland – the other being the North Ronaldsay sheep, also on Orkney, the archipelago off the Northeastern coast of Scotland.
Both are primitive small-framed short-tailed heritage sheep but there the similarity ends as they have unique physical appearances and flavours. Unlike the North Ronaldsay, the ancestors of the Orkney Boreray could not access the beach, so their flavours are influenced by rough pasture as opposed to the North Ronaldsay diet...
