AHDB's Charlotte Forkes-Rees, Hannah Clarke and Tom Spencer examine the stories behind the numbers from the world of agriculture. As agri-food markets become more uncertain, driven by changing weather, geopolitics, energy costs and changing consumer demands, the team are joined by colleagues to track the latest trends and explain what it all means for our levy payer businesses. And what impact it has on consumers. Each week the trio throw the spotlight on at least one sector, with the focus shared between arable, dairy, pork, beef and lamb as well as the wider farming industry. These sectors are ruled by the forces of economics and supply and demand which is why this podcast combines AGriculture and ecONOMICS. Given commodity markets, their multi-annual cycles and key inputs continue to evolve, the hosts draw on their extensive expertise to offer insight to help farmers and supply chains alike navigate the volatility and capitalise on opportunities.

    Farming and rewilding - a tale of two ecosystems! Plus, the Pork Environmental Roadmap

    The AG Show team catch up with filmmaker James Dawson and one of the two farmers at the heart of his new film, Derek vs Derek. The documentary looks at what happens when two very different approaches to managing land meet - quite literally - on opposite sides of a Devon lane. James asks a simple but provocative question: What’s it like living next door to Britain’s most notorious rewilder? We hear from Derek Banbury, a dairy and beef farmer who’s had a front‑row seat to watching his neighbour, former sheep farmer Derek Gow, drastically change how his land is used by reintroducing endangered species as part of a major conservation project. The team also get into the Pork Environmental Roadmap, breaking down what it means and how it sets out a shared, evidence‑based plan to help drive environmental progress across the pork industry.

    Great British Beef Week at The Farmer's Dog pub and a farm data time saver

    The AG Show links up with Jeremy Clarkson’s pub, The Farmer’s Dog, for a chat about Great British Beef Week. We catch up with head butcher Charlotte Kingham, who shares her top tips for picking the perfect steak – plus a bit of behind-the-scenes gossip about what life’s really like at the pub when the cameras aren’t on. Elsewhere in the episode, AHDB might just be tackling one of farming’s biggest headaches: entering the same data over and over again. Input once, use many times is the aim of the Farm Data Exchange, and project lead Adam Short joins us to explain how the proof-of-concept pilot has been going. And with spring marathon season in full swing, we’ve also got a bit of running chat.

    Forage for knowledge of grass growth and educating school children about farming

    It’s back to the classroom for The AG Show team as we dive into regional grass growth and how the industry is helping kids better understand where their food actually comes from. We kick things off with Forage for Knowledge, a handy tool supporting farmers with grassland management - and with the help of a brand new F.I.E.L.D. Agent, we find out exactly what it brings to the table. We also catch up with LEAF to hear how they’re teaming up with AHDB to make sure students get the full picture when it comes to sustainable, responsible farming. Oh - and we discover who’s planning to swap wellies for cowboy spurs with a horse‑riding honeymoon on the cards.

    Learning from Danish dairy farmers and tracking weekly fertiliser prices

    The AG Show is going full continental this week! We’re joined by a couple of our dairy farmers who’ve just landed back from an AHDB study tour in Denmark. They’ve come home buzzing with fresh ideas from one of the most forward‑thinking dairy industries out there… although it seems someone completely missed the memo about bringing back Danish pastries. We’re also digging into how farmers and broadcasters are leaning on AHDB to make sense of how the conflict in the Middle East is hitting agriculture and food production. There’s even a brand‑new weekly fertiliser price tracker to help keep everyone in the loop. And finally, did Hannah get grilled by her parents for daring to step into the kitchen wearing her wellies while farm‑sitting?

    Could harvesting rainwater on farm be a game changer? Plus AHDB engagement and plant-based food labelling

    From roof to resource - The AG Show is teaming up with a project across nine farms in Cumbria that’s helping farmers kit out their buildings to collect and reuse rainwater. AHDB’s Beef and Lamb Engagement Manager for the North West, Karl Pendlebury, pops by to chat about what it’s all about. Good job Karl’s on hand too, because Hannah’s attempts to join live from her parents’ calving shed are… well, let’s just say temperamental! Karl also talks about his role working directly with farmers - something our Chair, Emily Norton, recently dug into on the Meet the Farmers - The Big Debate podcast. And Charlotte’s got the latest from the EU, where plant‑based foods might soon be banned from using labels like "fillet" or "bacon".

    Spring calving update, fungicide resistance explained and a pork pie without pastry?!

    Beef and arable farmer Mark Jelly drops into The AG Show direct from the calving shed as he shares his experiences this spring. He talks us through the tech that’s helping him keep calf survival rates impressively high - all while trying not to get overshadowed by one particularly attention-seeking cow. We’re also diving into fungicide resistance with AHDB senior crop protection scientist Catherine Harries, who breaks it down for us using insights from Niab’s long-term monitoring. And finally… who’s been messing with the sacred pork pie? Someone’s swapped the pastry for bread - and we need to talk about it.

    Bluetongue lambing and calving risks, Middle East uncertainty and meat shopper journey

    With lambing and spring calving now in full swing, the AG Show team checks in with a vet to get the lowdown on what the Bluetongue virus could mean for the newest arrivals in your flock or herd. We also dig into how the conflict in the Middle East might shake up nitrogen supplies and impact other farm costs. And with shoppers feeling the pinch from rising food prices, we hear about a new study looking into what really influences their choices when they’re picking up red meat in-store.
