Ian Gould is a leading figure in regenerative agriculture in the UK, whose focus is on incorporating plant diversity into conventional farming systems to improve both environmental health and productivity. His work includes researching how companion planting and varietal differences within the same species, such as wheat, can enhance crop resilience, improve nutrient uptake, and optimize biomass production.
In this episode, John and Ian discuss:
The role of multi-species cover crops in improving soil health and productivity
Innovations in companion cropping and intercropping for increased yields and reduced pest pressures
The challenges and benefits of integrating plant variety diversity into mainstream agricultural
How smaller, more vegetative plants are often more resistant to frost in the UK climate
Nutrition management for disease and pest resistance
The importance of varietal differentiation as a critical component for optimizing yield and achieving environmental benefits
Ian is the director of Oakbank Game and Conservation Ltd. His work is driven by his early experiences in plant breeding. He first encountered regenerative ideas at the UK’s Groundswell Festival.
