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"

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.
