Episode Description

As the Labour Party Conference continues, the Prime Minister says improving profitability is his priority for farming. There's no sign of change on the decision to reimpose Inheritance Tax on farms worth over £1 million.

We begin a week focussing on the role of livestock markets in 21st century farming, and ask are they as relevant now as a generation ago?

County Armagh, in Northern Ireland, is famous for its Bramley Apples and we visit a grower who says his family has apple in their blood.
