Fresh from the Question Time panel on Thursday evening, Minette Batters; NFU President, joins host Ben Eagle alongside John Allen and Chris Walkland on this weeks podcast. After some worrying comments from PM Boris Johnson earlier this week at the Conservative Party Conference, we ask Minette if she believes there is a political appetite for agriculture. Minette describes the government as having ‘our lives and our livelihoods in their hands’ and discusses with John, the NFU request for a delay to BPS reduction to support farmers through this period of unprecedented change, as well as current issues with food security, farm labour and export opportunities. Not forgetting Chris who has double celebrations, firstly on becoming a grandfather but also the Milk Market is again extremely positive with some staggering numbers for spot milk trading this week.
