The Dairy Debate

Food Britannia

Available for over a year

Max Cotton's year of eating only UK-grown food has taught him an important lesson - dairy is a crucial staple in his diet. However, in a climate conscious world, can milk, cheese and yoghurt be produced without compromising climate goals? The answer could be in Britain's best grown crop - grass. Max speaks to agroecologists and organic dairy farmers, who believe they can produce dairy by working alongside nature, not against it. Presenter: Max Cotton Producer: Tessa Browne Executive Producer: Kate Dixon A Good Egg production for BBC Radio 4
