39: Farmer Clusters and the Importance of Data with Megan and Lizzie from GWCT

Farmer Clusters have been referenced more times than we can count in the last 38 episodes so we went straight to the source and arranged a conversation with Megan Lock and Lizzie Grayshon from GWCT who facilitate Farmer Clusters, work with waders, monitor wildlife and offer advice to farmers across the UK.Richard Negus takes the helm for this interview and the three discuss Wild Quail, the problems facing our breeding waders, how the government could help, mapping hedgerow habitat and more.This episode was recorded behind the GWCT stand at The Game Fair with a backdrop of rented van, low hum of generator and a spaniel who would rather be retrieving.CountrySlide is a podcast that looks at farming, conservation and life in the British countryside.Send us photos of your interesting trinkets that your other half wants to burn or bin as submissions to the calendar or for fun at: [email protected] Links- GWCT on Instagram and X- Farmer Clusters website- Martin Down Farmer Cluster on X- Megan on Instagram and X- Subscribe on Patreon for extra content (you can cancel at any time)- If you enjoy what we do, consider a one-off tip on Ko-fi- CountrySlide website- Negus' book tour dates can be found hereThe HostsRichard Negus websiteCallum McInerney-Riley websiteRichard Prideaux websiteEdited and Produced by Amy Green for Rural and Outdoor.
