This week on The AG Show, we’re diving into what the Autumn Budget could mean for farmers. Hannah Clarke and Charlotte Forkes-Rees are joined by AHDB’s Lead Economist, Jess Corsair, to break it all down.

Charlotte’s also sharing her hot takes on what’s going to land on your Christmas dinner plate this year - spoiler: it’s not just turkey talk!

And if you’ve ever wondered what goes into organising an award-winning festive tractor run, we’ve got the inside scoop.

Plus, our F.I.E.L.D. agents are back decoding more of the weird and wonderful words from the farming world. You’ll never look at agri-lingo the same way again!

Farmer Tom (AKA Tom Martin) joins The AG Show's Tom Spencer before taking the stage at AHDB’s Big Scottish Crops Conference. They’re chatting all things soil health, mental health and the AI tools Tom’s using to level up his farm game.

Meanwhile, Charlotte Forkes-Rees and Hannah Clarke dive into red meat and dairy, asking the big question: what wins with shoppers - value or convenience?

Plus, we’ve got the latest farming headlines and another head-scratching term decoded in F.I.E.L.D. agents.

Kaleb Cooper’s been checking out how farming works Down Under, and it’s got Charlotte, Hannah, and Tom thinking – could a gap year be a game-changer?

They catch up with Charlie Beaty, who swapped UK fields for New Zealand pastures, and Kiwi farmer Ethan Loveridge, who’s done the reverse. Plus, dairy farmer Sophie Gregory joins in – she’s keen for her eldest to see the world before settling down on the farm.

Sophie also opens up on The AG Show about how much impact the current milk price slump has had on her business, with AHDB’s Lead Dairy Analyst Susie Stannard digging into the numbers.

And yep, another farming acronym gets busted by one of our F.I.E.L.D. agents.

In this first episode of The AG Show, Charlotte Forkes-Rees, Hannah Clarke and Tom Spencer take a deep dive into a recent AHDB report that found British consumer trust in farmers has reached a record high.

The trio also catch up with Lancashire farmer Eden Hill, who understands the importance of that trust and combined with the power of social media is successfully selling her meat boxes.

And our F.I.E.L.D. agents begin their quest to jargon bust. No acronym is safe (even ours).
