This week, we find out how UK farmers can best deal with uncertainty – and secure a more  profitable future for their farm business.

As a challenging harvest continues, we look at autumn drilling options for winter cereal varieties – what's hot and what's not?

We visit the farmers and environmental groups who have joined forces for a groundbreaking soil restoration project in the Fens.

We've all the latest commodity prices – including a special report from the Thame Sheep Fair in Oxfordshire.

And we meet the auctioneer who has been selling cattle in south-west England for more than 40 years.
