This episode of Farming: The Long View is a little different. The conversation you’re about to watch was originally recorded last year with Clive Bailye from The Farming Forum and the team from Close Brothers Asset Finance. Although the format is slightly different from the usual podcast episodes, the themes are very much in the spirit of The Long View — discussing the bigger decisions shaping farm businesses today. In this discussion we explore: - How farmers are thinking about machinery investment - Managing risk in uncertain markets - The role of finance in farm business decisions - Long-term thinking when margins are tight It’s a thoughtful conversation about the realities facing modern farm businesses and the decisions that echo long after the season ends. Because in farming, the choices made today often shape the next decade. The work still gets done. Farming: The Long View is a podcast exploring the people, ideas, and decisions shaping the future of British agriculture.
