Conservationist David Elias and Arwyn Owen who farms Hafod y Llan, Nant Gwynant, discuss what one Welsh hill farm tell us about helping nature to thrive?

In recent times farming has often been viewed as harmful to nature and the environment, causing friction between those wanting to protect wildlife and the farmers whose livelihoods depend upon the land.

Conservationists and governments frequently propose well-meaning ideas and policies to enable farming and conservation to work together,
but all-to-often these do not have the intended results.Through first-hand conversations with farmers Elias shows what current policies have achieved – or not achieved – and why it is so important to understand what it really takes to ensure farming families remain on the land while helping nature to thrive.
