In this week’s Podcast we talk to the growers who want a ballot to decide the future of their AHDB Levy.

The OSR harvest gets underway across the country just as one of the key processing sites suffers a major fire.

We look at the results of this year’s annual crop plantings survey from AHDB and how farm tourism gets a boost from VAT cuts.

Auction marts across the UK work flat out to keep the show on the road, innovating and adapting in preparation for the big autumn breeding sales.

And we find out how you can cut your fuel bills by a quarter… the answer is hydrogen.

This episode co-hosted by Farmers Weekly executive editor Phil Clarke and Surrey farmer Hugh Broom, with Farmers Weekly business editor Suzie Horne.
