BBC Radio 4 Farming Today

Date: 1 May 2015, from 12:00 until 13:00.

During the war the farmers of Britain were celebrated for feeding the nation by producing wagon-loads of apples, pears, gallons of beer and tons of cereal crops. Today technology and the demands of the global market have challenged the old ways. BBC Radio 4’s Farming Today is staging a special recording of the programme featuring the next generation of agricultural workers – young farmers, engineers, innovators and researchers. There will be an expert panel on hand to answer your questions on succession, the jobs market, training and the rural economy. In the chair will be Farming Today and Countryfile presenter Charlotte Smith.
