Farming Today This Week: Brexit and UK Farming - Shall we stay or shall we go?
The latest news about food, farming and the countryside. Presented by Charlotte Smith. Brexit and UK Farming: three farmers debate the merits of leaving and staying in the EU.
Brexit and UK Farming: three farmers debate "Shall we stay or shall we go"? That's Sir Peter Kendall, former Chairman of the NFU, Ukip's Stuart Agnew and undecided farmer, Stephen Rash, who hears their arguments to find out whether he's in a better position as to how to use his vote in the referendum.
We also hear from the author of a report on the implications of Brexit for farmers, that's by agricultural economist Professor Alan Buckwell, and there are reports from Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland too.
The contributors discuss the role of farm subsidies from Brussels, access to markets in the event of a vote to leave the EU, and whether there really would be a "bonfire of the red tape".
Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Mark Smalley.
