Today, as part of the Tales of a Nuffield Scholar series, we chat to Emily Norton, a passionate advocate for climate-focused policy and the future of farming. 🌍

Emily discusses her journey into agriculture, growing up on a mixed family farm and experiencing the challenges of succession and intergenerational farming firsthand. Her early experiences shaped her dedication to building a more sustainable and equitable industry. 🌾

Her Nuffield Scholarship focused on how farmers can adapt their systems to align with sustainability goals while remaining profitable. Emily’s travels took her across the globe, from Europe to North America, where she explored innovative farming practices and their applications back home. ✈️

Emily reflects on her time as Chair of the Oxford Farming Conference and how her work has centred on bridging the gap between policy and practical farming solutions. Her insights highlight the critical role farmers play in tackling climate challenges while managing the realities of modern agriculture. 🌱

Enjoy!
