OnFARM Podcast: Patrick Laurie: Galloway farmer, conservationist and author

Patrick Laurie is an upland farmer and conservationist from Dalbeattie in Dumfries and Galloway. He talks to Monty of his pride in his herd of traditional Riggit Galloway cattle, and his growing concern for the plight of wildlife - particularly the birds that he says are disappearing from the landscape around him.

He is the author of several books including Native: Life in a Vanishing Landscape, a Times bestseller that was also shortlisted for the Wainwright Prize.

Huge thanks to Scottish law firm Gillespie MacAndrew for supporting this episode of OnFARM.
