Farmers Weekly Podcast Ep 169: How to beat uncertainty in farming
© Tim Scrivener This week, we find out how UK farmers can best deal with uncertainty – and secure a more profitable future for their farm business.
As a challenging harvest continues, we look at autumn drilling options for winter cereal varieties – what’s hot and what’s not?
We visit the farmers and environmental groups who have joined forces for a groundbreaking soil restoration project in the fens.
We’ve all the latest commodity prices – including a special report from the Thame Sheep Fair in Oxfordshire.
And we meet the auctioneer who has been selling cattle in south-west England for more than 40 years.
This episode of the Farmers Weekly Podcast is co-hosted by Johann Tasker and Surrey farmer Hugh Broom, with additional reporting by Louise Impey and Jon Riley.
