Farming, the Biggest Job on Earth
BASF's ‘Farming, the Biggest Job on Earth’ podcast shares experiences from the people that grow and rear our food and care for the natural environment. Each episode, Jane Craigie talks to farmers about the realities of what they do and how they do it to bridge the gap between farming and the food on supermarket shelves. From the early starts and the constant decision making to fostering a shared love of food and UK produce, Jane gets to the heart of issues facing agriculture today to help us reconnect with where our food comes from.

The Festive Plate
Over the festive period people come together with friends, family and sometimes strangers to celebrate. Food plays an essential role in all our celebrations and the festive plate is the outcome of hard work and dedication from our farmers. We caught up with 3 farming families who supply our food from the traditional turkey to the carrots and sprouts that adorn our plates. We also reflect on just how different Christmas will be for some people around the world this year. We spoke to an Agricultural Economist and refugee from Ukraine who tells us about the special food, moments, and traditions she shares with her family and her plans to travel back to Kyiv to be with them this Christmas.
