Padel in a potato store? Hear how a farmer's embraced the sporting craze, plus spring drilling tips
The AG Show is stepping onto the court - literally - as one inventive farmer has transformed his potato store into a set of padel courts to cash in on the fitness craze everyone’s suddenly obsessed with. Turns out the old barn is exactly the right height for anyone hoping to hit the perfect lob!
With spring drilling creeping up fast, we also check in with AHDB’s agronomy guru Bek Hirstman, who’s got some seriously handy tips for tackling those soggy fields.
Oh, and there’s also a royal visit to an auction mart - so plenty to talk about this week!
