Could Britain really face a shortage of turkeys this Christmas? We speak to a seasonal poultry producer who says the sector faces a huge challenge.
Would you like a minister for the countryside in every government department? Pipe dream or farming future? We find out.
On the markets, we have the latest prospects and prices for oilseed rape – and all the other major arable and livestock commodities.
After a ground-breaking government announcement, we ask: could gene-edited crops improve your bottom line? Or will they be a Franken-Food disaster?
And we meet the contestants fighting it out to be Britain's Fittest Farmer.
This episode of the Farmers Weekly podcast is co-hosted by Johann Tasker and Surrey Farmer Hugh Broom.
