We've spent all week talking about farming's next generation and as with most family businesses, many farmers hope at least one of their children will want to take over. But if you’ve got three kids who all want to stay, it might prove hard for all of them to make a living.
Anna Hill meets Minette Batters who stood down this week as President of the National Farmers' Union. Having been the most influential woman in British farming for the last six years, she's going back to the family farm in Wiltshire.
Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
