NZAGRC Interview at Troughton farm: 09-Jun-2020

One family's journey to farming sustainably available on the youtube channel of the NZ Agricultural Greenhouse Gas Research Centre. The video introduces Sarah and Ben Troughton, farm owners of my PhD research site, and their philosophy from a high input-output operation to a smaller, more diversified and environmentally sustainable system.
