Is Back British Farming Day worth it? Meet the man who could be running Defra, prospects for milk prices, winter forage outlook, & Frankenstein pumpkins

 In this episode, we examine the benefits of Back British Farming Day – and ask what impact does it really have on politicians ?
 
 We meet the new shadow Defra secretary. How would he make farmers lives better if Labour won the next election?
 
We investigate the impact of the cost of living crisis on retail milk sales.
 
As a topsy turvy season continues for grassland farmers, we look at the prospects for winter forage supplies.
 
 And we meet the Essex couple growing Frankenstein-shaped pumpkins for Halloween.
