Claire Whittle Regenerative Vet Christmas Special

About this episode

Claire Whittle discusses her transition from traditional veterinary practices to regenerative agriculture and the importance of natural systems in animal management.

Claire Whittle is now very well known in the regenerative agriculture sphere - she has a significant presence on social media and talks both vocally and passionately about natural systems and managing animals as naturally as possible - indeed this comes across as soon as you get into conversation. Claire trained as a vet and worked until recently in standard veterinary roles but became aware of the limitations of drug based therapies through her study of dung beetles. These small animals are so important to soil health and the cycling of nutrients yet are often missing on farms due to over medication and our now standard use of drugs and other chemicals on farms. Claire now practices as the "Regen Vet" advising on more natural approaches to pasture and animal management.
