Crop management for the week ahead and UK farming realities

Ciaran Collins and Shay Phelan, both tillage specialists with Teagasc, join the Tillage Edge this week to discuss the key actions needed in crops over the next 7 to 10 days.

 

We also hear from Andy Mahon, a Dubliner and farm manager in the UK, who shares his experience of the 2025 season so far. 

 

Andy highlights the stark realities facing UK farmers following the loss of direct payments and reflects on the shifting government attitude towards farming.
