Oxford Real Farming Conference 2022 discussion with Miriam MacDonald; Robert Owen; Caroline Grindrod; Russ Carrington; Caroline Aitken.

Farmers and their livestock play many roles in ecosystems, including those of keystone species, which profoundly alter the agroecosystems of which they are a part. We will explore the historical ecological roles of people and livestock in the co-creation of our landscapes including mixed farms, the uplands, reserves and rewilded sites. We will go on to discuss how farming practices can be viewed through the lens of our ecological interactions and discuss how we might better fill the role of keystone to co- create productive, stable and healthy landscapes for the future.
