In this episode, our experts explore some of the biggest changes to agricultural funding in more than a generation. Our experts discuss how agricultural funding has operated historically and concerns farmers may have with the changes as well as highlighting some of the funding support that is now available. We also discuss other funding changes on the horizon and how farmers are best placed to capitalise on them.
