The Farmers Weekly Podcast

In this episode, the government unveils a big expansion of its Sustainable Farming Incentive for England – including a 10% payment hike.
But is the new scheme compatible with food production?
As cross-compliance is abolished and delinked payments are introduced for English farmers, who are the winners and losers?
The Oxford Farming Conference theme is the Power of Diversity – in all its forms. What does that mean for farmers?
We introduce the latest Farmers Weekly campaign. Called Level the Field, it seeks to secure an equitable future for women in agriculture.
And the Oxford Real Farming Conference hosts the film premiere of Six Inches of Soil – a feature-length documentary about regenerative agriculture.
This episode of the Farmers Weekly Podcast is co-hsoted by Johann Tasker and Scottish farmer Sandy Kirkpatrick.
Additional reporting by Phil Clarke, Phil Case and Abi Kay.
