27 Jahre, angehender Lehrer und der Landwirtschaft als Städter eher fremd: Mit viel Humor nimmt Timo Poltrock im Podcast „StadtLandKuh“ alle mit, sich ein Bild von verschiedenen Höfen in Niedersachsen und der Tierhaltung dort zu machen. Im Gespräch mit LAND & FORST-Redakteurin Kristina Wienand erzählt der Hannoveraner von seinen Erlebnissen auf den Höfen. Was er über die Landwirtschaft gelernt hat, seitdem das Format im September 2020 auf Sendung ging? „Das ist nicht nur Kühe melken und dann Feierabend machen, sondern dazu gehört auch viel Finanzierung, Betriebswirtschaft und Personalmanagement. Es ist generell ein richtig harter Job. Auf der anderen Seite sehe ich immer wieder, wie viel Leidenschaft darin steckt: Trotz extremer Arbeitszeiten, viel Verantwortung und finanzieller Risiken werde ich auf den Betrieben oft angestrahlt und mir wird gesagt: `Das ist mein Leben!`“, berichtet der Podcast-Moderator. Er sieht den Podcast als gute Chance, zwischen Verbrauchern und Landwirten und -innen zu vermitteln. Viele machten sich keine Gedanken, wie viel Arbeit hinter einer im Supermarkt gekauften Packung Milch steckt, meint Timo Poltrock. Er selbst sei da ein guter Vergleich, weil auch er beim Einkaufen teils etwas gedankenlos zu landwirtschaftlich erzeugten Produkten greife. Auch über steigende Preise für Butter und Co. sollten sich die Verbraucher seiner Meinung nach angesichts der Mühe, die dahintersteckt, nicht zu sehr aufregen. Timo Poltrock schätzt an dem Podcast StadtLandKuh, den er im Auftrag von Milchland Niedersachsen produziert, auch, dass er bei seinen Besuchen auf den Höfen kritisch nachfragen darf: „Wir haben zum Beispiel Themen wie die Kuh-Kalb-Trennung behandelt. Indem ich das anspreche und die Landwirte es auch erklären können, und ich sehe, dass das dort gut läuft, können Brücken gebaut werden. Meine Haltung ist: Informiere dich bitte doch, was hier in Niedersachsen sehr viel produziert wird! Wenn du es nicht isst, ist es ja nicht weg.“ Was der Vegetarier von Imagekampagnen wie etwa den Aufrufen zum sogenannten Veganuary und Februdairy (engl. dairy für Milchprodukte) hält, verrät der Grundschullehrer ebenfalls in der neuen Podcastfolge.

Knowing the first episode of our second season would be published the first week of March, it was obvious we needed to talk about the Cheese-A-Day Challenge started by "Farmer Tom" in the UK had to be discussed! Getting to Know Farmer Tom Let's start with the reality that the farmer who started the Cheese-A-Day Challenge, a taste-sensation for the month of February isn't a dairy farmer! In fact, he primarily grows arable crops including wheat for baking, barley for beer, and they also produce lamb. Tom says all of it works together in building soil health with rotations and grazing. If you listened to season 1 of Grounded by the Farm, you know we have done episodes on all of those foods, but hearing about how they are grown on Tom's farm in the East of England is definitely different. And I had to laugh that I'm sitting in St. Louis and interviewing a farmer on the other side of the Atlantic to find out he grows a specific barley for Budweiser! A Cheese-A-Day Challenge Farmer Tom's been doing the cheese-a-day challenge for a few years now. He says he started doing it because he only really knew two types of cheese -- cheddar and Stilton -- and yet, the country has more than a thousand different cheeses. So in February, a time some call Februdairy, he tries a different cheese every day. You may enjoy the fact that Tom couldn't help but be amazingly proud of the dairy produced close to home as he boasts the history of English cheeses and their superiority to French cheese, even though the French & Belgians may have a bigger cheese reputation. Tom's helping put that to bed. He's shared it on Twitter, where he goes by @Farmer_Ton_UK, the last couple of years, but it kept gaining speed. This year, not only did he post videos on Twitter, but he put longer versions on YouTube. And this was the first year that he worked with a cheese shop on boxes. Almost 100 people subscribed to the series and got small shipments of cheeses without labels so they could participate in a blind taste test! You can browse the Twitter hashtag #cheeseadaychallenge to see the fun! While I interviewed Tom in the middle of the challenge, I asked him this week, what cheese was his favorite. You can see it here. In this video like everyday. He talks to someone who is involved in UK agriculture. You can watch the highlights on Tom's favorite cheese day in the Twitter edit or the full video here. That's Tom on the right and the head of the National Farmers Union on the left! While talking with Tom, I mentioned the chance I had recently to do a virtual cheese tasting with the folks at Midwest Dairy. They compiled a selection of cheeses from various parts of the midwest and sent a box to several of us cheese enthusiasts! My favorite was a soft cheese called Milk & Honey from Edgewood Creamery! Here's a list of the range of cheeses we had the chance to taste and like Tom, some of the pairings we had were great! Raising Sheep Farmer Tom mentioned raising sheep which brings me back to lamb. The grazing of sheep and other smaller mammals like goats is definitely something that has a good fit in some areas of the world. As we discussed in an earlier episode, sheep can sometimes fit landscapes that aren't well-adapted for other animals. As someone who enjoys lamb, I love that he has a lamb biriyani recipe demo on his YouTube channel. Check it out. Farmer Time -- Connecting Farmers & Classrooms As if farming and organizing a month of cheese eating wasn't enough to keep Farmer Tom busy, he's started an organization called Farmer Time (farmertime.org.uk) where farmers are connected with classrooms for on-going interactions. Although it's started in the UK, they have already begun expanding it to several markets. The website serves as a connecting point with farmers and teachers entering their information into the site for pairing. And it builds direct connections between farmers and the classrooms where students can ask farmers questions about the topics they are studying! Farmers join the classes via Facetime, Skype or other video conferencing so students on a fortnightly basis (every other week like this podcast!). That gives the class a chance to see what's happening quickly. Find Farmer Tom Online Farm website: VillageFarm.org.uk Twitter: @Farmer_Tom_UK Insta: @farmertomgb Facebook: @FarmerTomUk

2021: the year no one made a new year's resolution. Is there any point to new year's resolutions this, or any other year, for that matter? People only break them anyway. Surely making big decisions when you're busy, tired and potentially hungover is a bad move. Paul introduces Phylecia to three key month-long events in the calendar: Januhairy, Veganuary, Februdairy. None of these will last because no one can keep resolutions anyway - binary choices are such a bad idea. We talk about the benefits of goals rather than resolutions and when you should consider setting and then revising them. Live long and prosper.
Nicole and Dave sit down with writer, speaker, and farmer Dwayne Faber to talk animal welfare, the potential impact of having a Democrat in the White House on agriculture, and Hollywood hypocrisy. Myths are busted left and right, ice cream recommendations are made. Visit Dwayne at dwaynefaber.com and in the Twitterverse @dfaber84
Meet the Farmers specials look at a farming issue or subject in more depth and for this mini-series we are exploring potential changes in the dairy sector over the next few years from environmental policy to competition from plant based alternatives. In this third episode of the mini series which comes out throughout this week Ben speaks to dairy consultant and animal scientist Dr Jude Capper at the DairyTech event at Stoneleigh.
oday's guest Matt Swain is an expert in managing change and change is certainly something that the dairy sector has faced in the past and faces again today with numerous challenges and opportunities ahead. In this mini series we talk about the subject of change in relation to dairy, from environmental policy to plant based alternative products. This episode in particular introduces the subject of change and what happens when individuals and groups go through change.
This week we tackle the controversial topics of GOOP on Netflix, celebrity endorsed extreme diets, and the (lesser well-known) Februdairy. Welcome back to Episode 2 of Just The Fitness Tip!
Dr. Jude Capper is a passionate supporter of the dairy industry both in her native UK and around the word. With a PHD in Ruminant Nutrition, she is something of an expert in dairy production, however that doesn’t stop on-line trolls from vegansplaining to her why dairy is bad. They have gone so far as to suggest that the reason she got breast cancer at 26 years of age is karma from eating meat and dairy. If she can keep her cool on Twitter, anyone can. We talk about her #Februdairy campaign. Also, she claims Will Evans is way cooler than me and Jerseys are better than Holsteins….

What better way to start FebruDairy than with BC dairy farmer Julaine Treur? Creekside Dairy is organic, but Julaine won’t tolerate misleading marketing tactics like those used by Stonyfield Organics. Organic / Conventional, Canadian / American, in agriculture, we are all on the same team.
