This week we speak to the smiley legend that is Joe Cluley from Indigro. Joe breaks down the realities of modern arable agronomy—from crop nutrition and disease management to one of the industry’s more persistent challenges: caterpillars.

This week we’re joined by Alex Moss — the diversification guru himself.

We talk side hustles, survival, and the future of modern farming.

From tourism to new income streams, Alex shares how farms are adapting to stay profitable.

The boys are back, and to kick things off they interview singer songwriter and sheep farmer Tom Jenkins. From humble beginnings on a family farm, at 13 Tom picked up a guitar and hasn’t looked back. He has since released several albums, toured America and played with Ryan Bingham and Willie Nelson.

This week the lads are joined by Dave Hartley a key figure behind the highly popular Welly Ball event organized by Vale o Lune Young Farmers in Lancashire. Dave shares the history and details of the event, discussing its origins, challenges, and memorable moments.

Excited would be an understatement! Welly Ball 2024 is all set for July 5th! 😍 With Pub Yields, Disco Jackers, and the incredible Matt Edmondson from Radio One, it’s going to be a night to remember. 🌟

To celebrate we listen back to one of Vale o' Lune's favourite sons Reggie Clarke, who shares insights on his farming operations in Lancashire. Reggie also recounts his extensive travels across Asia, New Zealand, and Australia, offering vivid anecdotes about his experiences. The dialogue transitions to broader topics, including the disconnection between urban consumers and food production, the rise of veganism, and the environmental and economic implications of Brexit. Reggie and his friends debate potential future shifts in farming practices, such as embracing renewable energy and environmental schemes, ultimately emphasizing the evolving landscape of agriculture.

This week Dai and Jake, along with their guest Tom Hill, cover a range of topics, from humorous tales of past events, like Jake's battle with illness, to Tom's insights into the pig farming industry, his career as a young pig vet, and his passion for triathlon training leading up to the half Ironman World Championships in New Zealand. The conversation touches on the intricacies and challenges of pig farming, the importance of animal welfare, and the preventative approach in pig and poultry sectors compared to red meat farming. Additionally, the episode delves into Tom's rigorous training routine for his triathlon competitions, his nutrition, and his achievements and aspirations in the world of fitness.
