Sara Hall Email and Phone Number
PhD researcher at The University of Bristol funded by the UKRI through the SWBio DTP - South West Biosciences Doctural Training Partnership. Working within a multidisciplinary team I am using an integrated approach to measure multiple indicators of on farm sustainability (environmental, animal welfare and socio-economic impacts) across UK dairy production systems.The research will be conducted in the field, working with both intensive and extensive dairy farmers and hopes to:- gain improved understanding of the pathways towards sustainability for dairy production in the UK, helping to shape future policy.- provide insight and evidence of current societal perceptions towards the UK industry to help the farming industry align with public expectations.Having originally graduated from the University of Edinburgh and completing my final year project at Moredun Research Institute I went on to work in the dairy sector as a commercial cheese buyer for a decade before returning to work on my family farm where I manage a closed herd of native Dexter cattle.I am hugely motivated by the significant challenges currently faced by the UK farming industry and passionately believe that collaborative research between science, farmers and the public is of vital importance to achieve sustainable agriculture - "diversity over division". When not “hanging out with cows" I am to be found ferrying teenage children about, fighting bind weed in the garden and hanging out with my wire haired dachshund Bertie.

Having historically run a traditional Aberdeen Angus herd and commercial flock of sheep we are now in the process of building a closed herd of Elite Health status Dexter Cattle with an ultimate aim to reignite their position as a true dual purpose cow to become the first commercially milked Dexter herd in the UK. Our hope is to do so whilst keeping the calves at foot, through an ethical milking system.
