Farming Today - Ein Podcast von BBC Radio 4

Under the Government's Lump Sum Exit Scheme farmers must relinquish their land to claim the payment. They can either sell it, gift it or rent it out for a minimum of 5 years. After 5 years they can then take the land back in hand - so will the scheme really help free up land for new entrants? The Ulster Farmers Union has a new President. Livestock farmer David Brown from County Fermanagh was voted in by union members at their AGM. And we hear about the challenges of making an electric agricultural vehicle.
