The pressures currently facing the red meat sector globally are undeniable, making a strong case for the advocates of British beef production to take on the communications challenge with gusto. We look at the issue as Great British Beef Week kicks off. In the latest episode of the Agri-Food Comms Cast, Catherine Linch explores how this traditional sector is challenging some public' perceptions and setting the record straight about the merits of British beef. Jilly Greed, farmer and co-founder of Ladies in Beef, discusses this year's Great British Beef Week (GBBW), a celebratory annual campaign created to promote and champion beef production – from farm to fork. In the last 11 years, it's garnered tremendous support from across the industry. This year, GBBW is backed by the National Farmers' Union (NFU), Royal Agricultural Benevolent Institution (RABI), Agriculture, Horticulture and Development Board (AHDB) and Meat Promotion Wales. With sustainability as the theme for the 2021 event, Jilly believes connecting consumers with food provenance, the farmed countryside and how beef systems can support the environment is key to restoring the public's affiliation with eating red meat. This episode also highlights the value of a breadth of communications channels, including popular films like Kiss the Ground and online events like We Eat Balanced and the RABI cookalong, that are spreading positive messages around sustainable farming within the agri-food sector and beyond.
This special podcast will focus on Great British Beef Week, which will place on Friday 23 until Friday 30 April. Now in its 11th year, the campaign aims to highlight and celebrate the sustainable practices of British beef farmers. GBBW is a Ladies in Beef initiative, working with industry partners. John Bates talks to co-founder of Ladies in Beef, Jilly Greed, as well as two beef farmers, Anna Blumfield and Paula Matthews who share their sustainable beef farming storiesFor more information on the campaign visit the Ladies in Beef websiteHosted by John Bates and produced by Gemma Pamment.

This week I sit down with Silas from English farm to discuss regenerative farming, how it could help save the planet and why grass-fed beef is great for humans. About English Farm: At English Farm, we are staunch believers in the benefits of a diverse pasture only diet for our animals, firmly believing in the age old adage - you are what you eat. We have taken the time to explore what makes the best British Beef, and have come to find that the combination of high welfare - in order to reduce stress, the best breed - English Longhorn, and the best diet - diverse pasture, all combine to create a beautiful product that is full of flavour, environmentally sustainable, and is actually healthier than that of conventional grain-fed animals. Our organic system of rotational and conservation grazing allows the animals to behave as close to as nature intended, the holistic mob stocking approach helps to build soil carbon levels and our PFLA certified 100% grass-fed diet allows the slow grown Beef to achieve a fuller flavour which is nutrient dense and proven to have higher levels of beneficial omega 3 fatty acids. As stewards of the land we ensure that our organic farming system enhances the local biosphere by increasing soil diversity and health, encouraging diversity in our pastures and reinstating hedgerows for wildlife habitat.

The song this week was one that came so close...it was inspired by a TV advert where two young girls asked their uncle Stan to roll his cap across his chest then round the back of his neck...I came up with this song which Norman Thomas played every day on Radio City...I sent it to The Grumbleweeds who said they would do it if the advert went national...sadly it didn't because the despite the ad being so popular no-one knew what it was advertising...which was British Beef...close but no cigar. Katie Price has been taking some stick in the news regarding her receiving benefits from the Government to pay for taxis to take her disabled son to school...despite her being worth 45 million. In my opinion she's earned her money and pays her taxes.......I admire anyone who makes their fortune...and it's always the scroungers who seem to complain . I watched The Voice last week and to my delight one of the contestants was the singer from Black Lace...he didn't get selected but I was a big fan of the group...BUT it was uncool to like them...in fact some of their songs were voted the worst records ever...THEY WERE GREAT!!...you can't argue with full dancefloors....my band ALWAYS did Agadoo and The Conga...guaranteed to get everyone up....loved 'em!!....it’s called entertainment…something a lot of bands these days could do with a lesson in, I have been watching coverage of the 70th anniversary of the Holocaust...it's hard to believe this happened...no matter how many times you see it. It displays how low humanity can sink with their treatment of fellow human beings....soon there will be no living survivors to tell the story which MUST be carried into the future so this never happens again... Further proof that there are many morons roaming amongst us..there is a statue of Maggie Thatcher in an art gallery which has been moved to a small corridor and cordoned off...because some bright neanderthals decided to behead it...no matter what you thought of her when she was P.M. what does that achieve?...and having street parties when she died just shows how some of us have yet to evolve.Looking for someone to man a one way journey to Mars?....look no further…
