Delighted to be a guest on this week's Agriculture 2050 Podcast, discussing Cranfield University new #Soil Scientist Apprenticeship & MSc in #SoilScience Listen to our conversation below 🎧 🎙️Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/7kcEFe… 🎙️Apple: podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/epi… 📚Sponsored by Burleigh Dodds

In University of York today for the STFC Food Network+ Annual Conference on behalf of Cranfield University Our project #UrbanCultivate, funded by the network in 2022, has since evolved into a start-up company - more exciting news about that very soon!! Thanks to Prof. Sonal Choudhary and the team!


Happy #WorldSoilDay! This year, I'm really excited that one of our Talking #Soil Benches has gone to Cardiff for the British Society of Soil Science Annual Conference!🪑 From next week, the Talking Bench will be at the Visitor Center for Bute Park (next to Cardiff Castle) until end Jan!


Delighted to have written the inaugural Thought Leadership article for CO₂RE - The Greenhouse Gas Removal Hub Future Leaders Network's new partnership with illuminem My article looks at the 'known unknowns' of #soil #carbon #sequestration as a #GGR strategy Check it out here: tinyurl.com/y5mc73a5



After 1,215 days, I'm so proud that the UK's first #Soil Scientist Apprenticeship has officially begun at Cranfield University We have a lovely first cohort & we're looking forward to opening up places for the second cohort (starting in November) very soon! tinyurl.com/2u6pzt4f


Delighted to have contributed to this STFC Food Network+ Major Achievements showcase video📽️ I am indebted to the Science and Technology Facilities Council #Food Network for generously supporting our 'Urban Cultivate' #research project, which has now spun-out into a company!🪴🏙️ youtu.be/frSrYLf29uM?fe…

Our Cranfield University MSc #Soil Scientist and Apprenticeship students are busy discussing how Kate Raworth’s Doughnut Economics model can be applied to #sustainable soil management 🌎🌱🌾💷 Meanwhile… 🍩


🥳PUBLISHED Vadose Zone Journal 🥳 💬We talk a lot about the #carbon in #soil, but what about the underlying parent material? 📜Here I show that stocks of organic carbon in weathered #bedrock can be similar to those in overlying soil. Read more➡️tinyurl.com/5b775sb3 Cranfield University

I've penned a Thought Leadership article on #Soil #Carbon for Cranfield University📰 With a soil-money analogy, I explore: 💳Deposits ~ sequestrating C 💳Savings ~ protecting C stocks 💳Transfers ~ allowing C transport 💳Costs ~ unaccounted C losses Read more➡️tinyurl.com/296fsuha


🎉JUST PUBLISHED AGU Advances 🎉 The Known Unknowns of Petrogenic Organic #Carbon in #Soils ➡️tinyurl.com/OCpetro 💡Some #bedrock contains organic carbon which is released into #soil during soil formation 💡How does OCpetro affect our understanding of soil carbon cycling?


Thank you to Susan Trumbore and AGU Advances for selecting our recently published paper as an Editor’s Pick! Our paper 📖 ➡️ The Known Unknowns of Petrogenic Organic #Carbon in #Soils Editor’s Pick 📑 ➡️ eos.org/editor-highlig… Cranfield University ETH Zurich The Royal Society

I'm delighted to join the British Standards Institute Technical Committee for 'AW/20 Topsoil, other growing media and turf', providing thought leadership in #soil science on behalf of Cranfield University Really keen to work with the Committee to enhance a range of #soil standards


One of the things I love about working at Cranfield is being a Partner of Choice for #industry This morning, my Uber journey from Milton Keynes to Cranfield University is in a Nissan car designed at Cranfield University! That’s what I call #ResearchImpact cranfield.ac.uk/press/news-202…

We've opened applications for Cohort 2 of our #Soil Scientist #Apprenticeship launching November 2025 here Cranfield University 💡Covered by a £21,000 Levy! 💡Hybrid: integrating online with in-person training 💡Part-time, 2 years 💡MSc Degree qualification youtu.be/8lHawIP3sNA?fe…
