Welcome back to This Week in Farming, your one-stop shop for the best content from Farmers Weekly in the past seven days. First, the markets (opens as PDF) where there have been slips again in red meat prices – but happily for those in the market for fuel, diesel also continues to fall. A reminder that we launched our new arable inputs prices table last week, which will be updated on a monthly basis. Now, on with the show.

Well, after I predicted at the end of last month that prime minister Sir Keir Starmer would have to choose between closer co-operation with the EU and a trade deal with the US, it appears he and his trade team may have found a way to have their cake and eat it. Hormone-treated beef imports are still banned, even as the hormone-free product has been granted more favourable access, meaning closer alignment on standards with the EU – a deal also expected this month – is still on the table.

Welcome back to another edition of This Week in Farming, your one-stop shop for the best Farmers Weekly content from the past seven days. First, the markets (opens as PDF). You might want to lower your sunglasses in shock for this one – there’s finally been a drop in the beef price – but only by 0.6p/kg for deadweight steers. Lambs also dropped back under the £7/kg mark, widening the gap on year-earlier levels, and wheat shed another £2/t to £163.50/t – a very poor price indeed.
