PhD Candidate in Geography, Lancaster University
I am a first year PhD candidate at Lancaster University in geography, researching land use, agricultural transitions and ecological crisis. Specifically, my research is looking at the concept and practice of natural capital. Focussing on how changes to subsidy schemes and regulations are affecting farmers in Wales and England.
I have a co-authored article on hinterlandisation in the Architectural Design journal, a co-authored chapter on neoliberal Welsh farming policy, a forthcoming paper on land grabbing in Wales and have written for various online publications on food and farming systems.
I also help to run a small, mixed farm in the south west of Wales.
