R2Kast 162 - Hattie McFadzean on a career in Myanmar, sustainability in dairy and Nuffield.

Myanmar you listening?

Today’s guest, Hattie McFadzean studied a few modules at uni that guided her into a slightly different path! Having come from a family where both parents were from farming but not farming in Hattie or her brothers lifetime Hattie found a new interest in farming but with focus on sustainability and the climate.

In what can only be described as some pretty impressive procrastination as she wrote her dissertation Hattie applied for a job working in Vietnam before being transferred to Burma where she spent two years.

Just before the 2020 Burmese coup and a mere 3 days before lockdown Hattie came home which she mentioned was a lucky move!

When she came back she now works with Promar as part of their sustainability team and is carrying out her Nuffield scholarship on how dairy farming can place itself better sustainably!

Enjoy!
