Bryan Gibson has been the editor of Farmers Weekly since 2014, having held a number of roles in journalism and communications. He considers it a great privilege to be able to tell farmers’ stories each week through our print and digital channels. When he’s not wrangling our team of top journalists, or recording for our Rural Leaders podcast series, he can be found on the bowling green, playing his guitar or with his nose in a good book.
