Looking Forward
Verity Sharp meets young farmers working through Coronavirus, and asks about their hopes and visions for the future.
Verity Sharp hears how young farmers are juggling one of the busiest times in the farming calendar with a global pandemic, and how they are looking to the future with hope.
Living in the mountains of Snowdonia with no mobile signal, Teleri Fielden can usually visit her neighbour鈥檚 farm to borrow the tractor or ask for help with lambing, but this year she and sheepdog Roy have had to manage it totally alone.
From their sheep shed in Shetland, Kirsty and Aimee Budge explain how they are juggling the busy arrival of lambs and calves with ensuring their island community pulls together. And at Plas Poultry in Brecon, Tom Parry tells us how lockdown has prompted a huge rise in people looking to rear their own chickens, and how he has been personally affected by the pandemic.
Produced by Caitlin Hobbs.
