ORGANIC SOIL IMPROVER: Providing a full nutritional profile for you soil to make it healthier and more productive
Season One of The Sea2Soil Podcast is complete! Across six episodes, we’ve heard from six expert voices and listened to their insights into the future of soil health and regenerative farming.
And what a journey it's been. From conservation agriculture principles to real-world regenerative systems, from microbial activity to amino acid applications, we’ve explored the challenges and opportunities facing modern farming through honest, expert-led conversations.
Hosted by our Business Development Manager, Grant James, each episode brought together leading voices from across the UK and Europe to tackle the questions that matter most to growers, agronomists, and farm advisors working to build healthier, more resilient farming systems.
What we covered
We kicked off with Steve Townsend from Soil First Farming, who set the tone by explaining why chemistry, physics, and biology must work together for truly healthy soils. Steve’s insights into conservation agriculture and the role of BASE-UK in farmer-led knowledge exchange reminded us that sustainable change happens through community and shared learning.
Regen Ben opened the doors to his Herefordshire farm in Episode Two, showing us regenerative farming in action. His candid discussion about profitability, biodiversity gains, and how Sea2Soil fits into his system across cereals, potatoes, and agroforestry proved that regenerative practices and commercial success can go hand-in-hand.
In Episode Three, James Warne from Soil First Farming introduced us to the concept of ‘underground livestock’, exploring how feeding soil microorganisms is just as crucial as feeding the crops above ground. His practical advice on boosting microbial activity gave listeners tangible steps to improve soil health from the ground up.
Joel Williams delivered a masterclass in Episode Four, breaking down the science of amino acids and soil conditioners. His expert knowledge on application timing, particularly heading into autumn, offered invaluable guidance for growers looking to enhance soil fertility and build long-term productivity.
Episode Five took us to Claydon Farms with Simon Revell, where we explored two years of Sea2Soil trials alongside the Claydon Opti-Drill System. Simon’s insights into establishment technology, soil structure, and upcoming Net Zero trial work with Nottingham University showed the exciting direction farm innovation is heading.
We closed the season with Marian Dichevski, who gave us a window into farming in Bulgaria and across Europe. Marian’s perspective on climate challenges, drought conditions, and the growing need for products like Sea2Soil in European markets reminded us that soil health is a global conversation.
The bigger picture
Running through every episode, however, was a commitment to practical, implementable knowledge. These weren’t theoretical discussions. They were field-based insights from people working directly with soils, facing real challenges and finding real solutions that are already working in their fields.

In this episode, we hear from Regen Ben, our host for recording day, at his farm near Ross-on-Wye in Herefordshire.
With some powerful messages, Ben is a passionate advocate for regenerative farming, and you can listen to his thoughts on soil improvers and how he uses Sea2Soil and other practices on his farm across his cropping in a profitable way, which has significantly improved soil health and biodiversity.
Ben explains how SeaSoil is being successfully utilised right across the farm rotation in multiple crops, including cereals, potatoes and in agroforestry, and how it complements all the other regenerative practices used on the farm.

At Sea2Soil, we know there’s no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to improving soil health or building a resilient farm system. Every field is different, every farm is different, every grower faces unique challenges - but one thing remains constant: the power of shared knowledge and practical insight.
That’s why we’ve launched The Sea2Soil Podcast - a brand-new series of honest, expert-led conversations diving deep into the world of soil health, regenerative farming, and sustainable agriculture.
Hosted by Grant James, Sea2Soil’s Business Development Manager and trusted voice in the farming community, the podcast brings together leading figures from soil consultancy, agronomy, regenerative farming, and more.
