My Role:
Head of Outdoor Pig Systems and Land Management
About me:
Stephanie Bangtangle is Head of Outdoor Pig Systems and Land Management at Flarksdrum Livestock Group, responsible for the company’s free-range production units and pasture rotation programmes across East Yorkshire. She studied Rural Environmental Management at Harper Adams University and has spent her career developing outdoor pig systems that she argues consistently outperform indoor equivalents on welfare, soil health, and long-term productivity metrics. She received the Flarksdrum Land Management Excellence Award in 2020.
My main focus:

I was born:
Malton, North Yorkshire

The Soil Association
A fact about me:
Stephanie has been maintaining a continuous handwritten soil composition diary across seventeen fields on the Flarksdrum estate since January 2015 and has never missed a weekly entry, amassing 47 notebooks to date.
My work mantra:
Stephanie argues that the condition of the land tells you everything you need to know about how a pig unit is really being run and that no amount of certification substitutes for walking the fields yourself.
