I'm watching the latest series of Clarkson's Farm.
This is the 5th series of this popular show, and the focus this time is on the tax on inheritance that was introduced for farmers, which led to protests in London, and the settling in period for his pub: 'The Farmer's Dog'. He has also been looking to technology to improve profits from the farming side of the business, and in an early episode he travelled to Europe to see how other farmers were using drones and other equipment to farm more precisely to increase yields and cut costs.
Jeremy Clarkson has done a lot to publicise the importance of farming and the difficulties that farmers face.
The Floating Farm is in Rotterdam. He visited this after seeing a precision farming operation.
Here's some of their technology in action.
