Following the Budget, Caz Graham is in Cumbria to hear farmers' reactions to the news that inheritance tax will apply to farms from April 2026.

The National Farmers' Union tells us farming is being "bled dry" and has "nothing left to give".

The Minister for Food Security and Rural Affairs, Daniel Zeichner, confirmed that next year's farming budget for England remains unchanged at 拢2.4 billion.

There was no mention of nature in the Chancellor's speech, something the Wildlife Trusts highlighted, saying "the UK Government must commit to long-term strategic funding for nature鈥檚 recovery and provide greater funding for environmental regulators".

Presented by Caz Graham and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
