Every day is a school day: Jeremy Moody on land, policy and the future of rural careers

Описание: On 13 November 2025 we recorded a must-watch Concord & Victory interview led by Will Evans and Alex Capella (Croft Lower 6th), in conversation with Jeremy Moody, Secretary and Adviser to the CAAV and one of the most influential voices in the UK rural sector.

Across the discussion, Jeremy explains why this is “the most fascinating time in most people’s lifetimes” for rural land management. He talks about radical shifts in UK agricultural policy, the real impact of biodiversity net gain, lowland peat and carbon, and how inheritance tax changes are prompting families to rethink the future of their farms and estates.

For pupils, parents, and anyone curious about rural careers, he outlines clear routes into becoming a land agent or rural chartered surveyor, from Harper Adams and the Royal Agricultural University to new blended work/study pathways. He also shows how GIS mapping, drone surveys and even AI are reshaping the profession, while core skills in judgement, people skills and stewardship remain as important as ever.

If you are interested in land management, the countryside, sustainability or professional life in the rural economy, this is a rich, practical introduction to a career that quietly sits at the heart of Britain’s landscape.
