The Farmers Guardian podcast: Students talk IHT - "My dad has been waiting his whole life to take over this business and now it is looking even harder"

At 16 to 18 years old, the younger generation may not necessarily be immediately taking on farm businesses, but they will feel the impact of the Budget. 

Five students from Myerscough College – William Morphet, a fourth-generation dairy farmer; Ollie Ciotkowski, who is not from a family farm but works in arable; Evie Moon, third-generation sheep and beef farmer; Luke Edmunson, third-generation dairy farmer; and Evie Hall, who is from a non-farming background and works on Tom Pemberton's dairy farm – tell us how they are concerned the lack of support from the Government and the misunderstanding of the public could impact the industry.
