Kees Huizinga has been farming in Ukraine for 20 years with 15,000 hectares of crops and 2000 dairy cows on land between the capital Kyiv and the port of Odesa. Charlotte Smith asks him how the season is progressing as the war continues. Meanwhile, the increased price of fuel and fertiliser is beginning to bite. Dairy farmers call for consumers to pay around fifty per cent more for their milk. And a report published by the Scottish Environment and Forestry Directorate last month outlines barriers to people leaving farming as well as barriers to new entrants - so is that a problem and if so, how do we fix it? Presented by Charlotte Smith Produced for BBC Audio Bristol by Heather Simons
