Milk price slump, African swine fever hits Spain, ruminant antibiotic use and bluetongue update

We’ve got a jam-packed livestock episode on The AG Show!

First up, we’re diving deeper into the drop in milk prices and what it means for our dairy farmers, with insights from AHDB’s Lead Analyst, Susie Stannard.

We’re also talking about African swine fever popping up in wild boar in Spain - and how that could shake up global trade.

Jennifer Morgan’s here with the latest on Bluetongue virus, plus we’ll explore how farmers and vets can get involved in the UK Ruminant Antibiotic Stewardship Roadmap.
