Farming Today - Farming Today This Week

Logo for Farming Today - Farming Today This Week

In this morning's edition of Farming Today This Week, we hear from a group of people who all want a job in agriculture. As we come out of a recession, The National Institute of Economic Research warns that it will be hard for graduates to get jobs for the next two to three years. But Lantra, the skills council for land based industries, claims that 91 percent of agricultural students are finding jobs within six months of leaving college. Farming today will follow the progress of these seven people over the next 12 months as they try and get a job in the industry. This programme is presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Anna Varle.
