In this episode, UK environment secretary Steve Reed pledges a better future for Britain's farmers. Is it a New Deal? Or is it a raw deal?
Mr Reed's speech to this year's Oxford Farming Conference made much mention of food security and the need to increase agricultural productivity and profitability.
Meanwhile, farmers say they will ramp up protest against government plans to impose 20% inheritance tax on farm asset worth more than £1 million.
As the UK's first case of glyphosate-resistant weeds are confirmed on a farm in Kent, we look at the implications for growers – especially regenerative farmers.
This episode is co-hosted by Farmers Weekly podcast editor Johann Tasker, arable specialist Louise Impey and Surrey farmer Hugh Broom.
