The Farmers Guardian podcast: Sophie Gregory - organic farmer and Nuffield Scholar talks all things dairy

Sophie Gregory is an organic Arla dairy from Dorset, and has recently embarked on her Nuffield Scholarship looking into the future of organic dairy. 

She now has thousands of followers on Instagram, which is all about showcasing British farming and the value of the sector. Her account, Farmer in Training, started out as a way to document her journey into agriculture from a non-farming background. 

Sophie is truly passionate about farming, and hopes to inspire others through education, on-farm visits and her Nuffield research.
