Looking for dairy farmers 🙋‍♂️ who have a bit of a thing for cow behavioural enrichment - so probably a bit of a self-proclaimed enrichment nerd, dabbling beyond brushes into stuff like outside loafing, buoys or bales, & always watching animals to see how they interact with it...

[UK Food System Resilience in a Global Context @FSR_ProgrammeUK]

How can we innovate to move from unhealthy diets towards local food that is good for people and planet? The @UKRI_News funded BeanMeals project launches today. Led by @JohnSIIngram from @ECIOxford, BeanMeals aims to subvert the ‘farm-to-fork’ paradigm. https://t.co/kIr8WLK0vh
