R2Kast 382 – Niels Corfield on soil health, weather, and regenerative insights

Today we welcome Niels Corfield onto the R2Kast! 🎙️ A consultant, educator, and soil enthusiast, Niels has become one of the leading voices in regenerative agriculture across the UK. 🌱🌍

We hear how he grew up in a scientific household, moved through IT and tech work, then found his way back to land through plant nurseries and adult education. That shift led him to become a trainer in soil health, running field sessions where farmers literally put spades in the ground to understand structure, rooting depth, and infiltration. 🪱🌿

Niels speaks with me about beating the weather, why dry soils are harder to manage than wet ones, and how monitoring on more than 250 farms has given him clear patterns to share with the industry. He explains what healthy soil really looks like and why practical, hands-on learning is the best way to engage farmers of all kinds. 🌦️🚜

An inspiring conversation for anyone interested in resilience, climate, and the future of food.

Enjoy! 😊
