A pioneering eco-conscious farmer who works the same land Rabbie Burns once did has saved his business by going green.
Dad-of-four Bryce Cunningham told how his family nearly lost it all eight years ago. But now the 36-year-old, who runs Mossgiel Farm near Mauchline in Ayrshire, has been hailed for his groundbreaking environmental efforts.
They include becoming the first dairy farm in Britain to eliminate single-use plastics as well as switching to electric delivery vans and heating his estate with biomass. He revealed he’d had no intention of running the dairy farm back in 2013.
