  • The Producers: Bruce Maynard (Wheat and Sheep farmer) - valuing diversity and soil health

    The Producers: Bruce Maynard (Wheat and Sheep farmer) - valuing diversity and soil health
    May 26 2025
    Bruce Maynard isn’t farming like those around him. His fields at Willydah, west of Dubbo in NSW, look different, greener, wilder, a little more chaotic. He’s a wheat and sheep farmer like many in the region, but he’s just as interested in lizards, migratory birds and native legumes as grain yield. Where the system pushes for simplicity, he’s valuing diversity and soil health, and looking for ways that agriculture can be both profitable and sustainable. Read my story about Bruce Maynard and another wheat farmer and previous podcast guest, Jason Cotter. ⁠⁠https://www.theage.com.au/national/in-100-years-one-wheat-farming-family-had-never-tasted-their-own-flour-until-now-20250428-p5luos.html?ref=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_source=rss_feed⁠⁠ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER FOR EXCLUSIVE ARTICLES, NEWS, GIVEAWAYS AND BEHIND THE SCENES ⁠⁠https://deepintheweeds.us6.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=d33e307cf7100cf947e2e6973&id=d17d8213f5⁠⁠ Follow The Producers on Instagram ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/producerspodcast/⁠⁠ Host Dani Valent ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/danivalent⁠⁠ Host Anthony Huckstep ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/⁠⁠ Executive Producer Rob Locke ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/⁠⁠ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS ⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork⁠⁠ The Producers is a food podcast telling the stories of producers, farmers, growers and makers..

    May 22 2025
