When Real Farming Meets Real Science
In this clip from An EcoFarmer’s Discovery – Chapter 7, Ewan shares how real farming insight comes from experience, not just research papers. While many agricultural organisations focus on selling products, he argues that true progress starts with curiosity, soil testing, and observation. Reflecting on his time with Brookside Labs, Ewan talks about being “the odd one out”, a hands-on farmer surrounded by scientists and how that perspective helped him connect data to real-world farming. His message is simple but powerful: farmers who listen to their land can often see what the experts miss.
