FAS TV S5 Episode 25
Land, legacy and leadership are the themes for this year's Woman in Agriculture conference. On this week’s FAS TV, we hear from keynote speaker Katie Brisbane, who shares her powerful personal story about planning for the future and navigating farm succession after the tragic loss of her husband in a farm accident. Succession can be one of the hardest conversations for farming families to face. Katie’s experience shows that, while difficult, it doesn’t have to be overwhelming — and that having the right conversations at the right time can make all the difference for those involved.
FAS TV covers a wide range of topics across sectors, as well as regular updates on regulatory and policy changes.
In this Thrill of the Hill episode, we sit down with Senior Consultant and Lead on the Carbon Dynamics Knowledge Network, James Orr from SAC Consulting to explore what carbon reduction really looks like in upland and hill farming systems. James shares his perspective on the actions farmers can take now, the investments most likely to deliver benefits, and how measuring and understanding carbon footprints can support better decision-making.
