In this episode, we examine new farm-level evidence suggesting phosphorus is coming into balance on farms in the River Wye catchment – and ask what it means for water pollution.

We visit a field trial where precision breeding could make UK-grown soya commercially possible.

We examine the continuing decline in cattle and sheep numbers, and run the rule over the latest livestock and arable markets.

And we discover why some of Britain’s biggest music names are heading to Suffolk for a harvest festival with a difference.

This episode is brought to you by Bayer Crop Science – weeding out uncertainty.

The Farmers Weekly Podcast

River Wye pollution progress, gene-edited soya, falling livestock numbers & Great British Harvest Festival

In this episode, how much rain is enough to start drilling after one of the driest summers in recent memory?

We look at autumn crop establishment as growers weigh up whether to put oilseed rape and other crops into exceptionally dry soils – or wait for more meaningful rainfall.

We assess the prospects for the coming sugar beet harvest after drought, heat and pest pressure take their toll on crops.

And farm leaders call for tougher controls on Brazilian beef and imported eggs as questions mount over whether food coming into Britain meets the same standards expected of UK producers.

Meanwhile, fertiliser suppliers urge growers to start talking about next season’s requirements as geopolitical disruption threatens to disrupt another buying season.

And finally, a police watchdog says firearms licensing in England and Wales is “not fit for purpose”.

What would a new national licensing authority mean for the thousands of farmers and other rural businesses that rely on shotguns and firearms for their work?

This episode is brought to you by KWS – seeding the future since 1856.

Autumn drilling gamble, fertiliser warning, sugar beet drought, Brazilian beef imports, and firearms licensing

Could government-backed crisis loans help cash-strapped farmers recover from drought and keep Britain producing food?

This week, we examine industry proposals for a Keep Britain Growing Loan – an interest-free, government-backed scheme planned for farmers.

With the bluetongue outbreak continuing to spread northwards, we hear why livestock producers are being urged to vaccinate susceptible cattle and sheep as soon as possible.

We look at China’s drive for greater food self-sufficiency and what it could mean for global agricultural markets.

And a new report called From Risk to Reward examines the financial cost of switching to regenerative farming.

If farmers lose money during the transition, should food companies and the wider supply chain shoulder more of the risk?

This episode is brought to you by Bayer CropScience - weeding out uncertainty.
