About this listen

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.
