Alan McFadzean

Previously the dairy Knowledge Exchange Manager for the north, Alan is currently supporting the beef and lamb engagement teams as a senior engagement manager. 

With over two decades of hands-on livestock experience across dairy, beef and sheep systems – both in the UK and the USA – I bring a deeply practical and farmer-focused perspective to my role as Senior Engagement Manager for Beef& Lamb. Having worked on and managed mixed farms, built strong relationships with producers across systems, and run my own AI and fertility business in California, I understand first-hand the challenges and decisions farmers face daily. Whether it's improving herd fertility, refining ration plans, or strengthening team dynamics on-farm, I’m passionate about helping farmers find practical, sustainable solutions that work for their business.
