Listen to some of the latest news from the farming sector and learn about the articles featured in the 18 September issue of Farmer’s Weekly in this episode of the Weekly Wrap podcast, presented by Denene Erasmus.

Our main feature this week discusses why a comprehensive and all-inclusive budget is critical to the success of any farming business. We also have an article on how the COVID-19 lockdown has triggered a rise in rural crime, a research article on a new disease threat to citrus, papaya and other sub-tropical fruits, and a crops feature that looks at the effective management of cutworm in maize.

As in previous episodes, Erasmus also highlights some of the top performing news articles from Farmer’s Weekly’s various platforms.
