Show Notes

In this final Farmers Weekly podcast of 2022, we review the farming year – and take a special look at the prospects for UK agriculture in 2023.

We do so with Andersons – the farm business consultants who publish the Andersons Outlook – an annual look at the year ahead for agriculture.

Ag-inflation and high input costs seen in 2022 are set to remain a big challenge for growers and livestock producers agriculture in 2023.

Farm business consultant Sebastian Graf Baker says soil health is arguably more important than ever when it comes to combinable crop margins.

And dairy specialist Mike Horton says the red meat and milk sectors face some  mixed fortunes over the coming 12 months.
