Friday 24th September 2021

In this episode, the  fertiliser market soars after UK manufacturers curtail production because of rising gas prices.

What should farmers do to secure fertiliser supplies? And should rates be adjusted?

On the markets, Boris Johnson finally gets the go-ahead to send UK lamb to the USA. But when will exports start?

A new sugar beet price is announced – but is it enough to keep growers sweet?

And we meet  Cornish young farmer Maria Warne, who won a national farm safety award – with a little help from her 'granfer'.

This episode is co-hosted by Johann Tasker and Surrey farmer Hugh Broom.
