60: Helping your staff and your business (and a market update)

How did improving farm staff management skills make James Orr’s job easier and more enjoyable? In this episode, James talks to AHDB Skills Manager Amie Burke about what he learnt from some staff management workshops and the benefits it brought to his farm in Fife.

Amie also tells us about her work with farmers across the country on business skills development, as well as her involvement in the new Agrespect organisation.

To finish up, Peter Collier has a very quick update on our grain and oilseeds markets.
