The Sourdough School Podcast - With Farmer Roger Saul Discussing UK Food Security with Dr Vanessa Kimbell and MP Stuart Andrew

Here’s a warm, thoughtful, and insightful introduction for your podcast episode featuring Farmer Roger Saul and MP Stuart Andrew:

🌾 Podcast Episode: UK Food Security & Inheritance Tax — With Farmer Roger Saul

We’re delighted to bring you a deeply important conversation on The Sourdough School Podcast, featuring organic farmer Roger Saul—co‑founder of Sharpham Park and former Mulberry entrepreneur—and MP Stuart Andrew, joined by Dr Vanessa Kimbell.

🎙️ This episode unpacks two intertwined crises facing our food system:

1. Food Security in the UK

Roger Saul and Stuart Andrew discuss how our dependence on imports and fragile food supply chains put us at serious risk. Over 40 % of our food is imported, and with threats ranging from extreme weather to geopolitical instability, the UK must rebuild its resilience from the ground up

2. Inheritance Tax on Farms

From April 2026, inheritance tax relief on farms above £1 million will be limited to 20 %. This “tractor tax” has sparked widespread protest—tractors through Whitehall, farmers in Westminster, even warnings of risking food security The NFU and farming leaders warn that wafer‑thin margins could vanish, farms could be forced to sell, and our rural food infrastructure eroded.

This podcast takes us beyond headlines. We explore:

  • How farming families inherit not just land—but stewardship of vital food systems.

  • Why removing relief threatens investment in regenerative agriculture.

  • What meaningful policy and public commitment look like for secure, sustainable food futures.

This is a vital listen for anyone who cares about where our bread comes from—not just in the supermarket, but from field to flour to table. If you value food sovereignty, rural livelihood, and regenerative farming, this episode offers clarity, context, and conviction.

🎧 Listen now to The Sourdough School Podcast, and join us in understanding why protecting our farmers—through thoughtful tax policy and support—is central to our collective wellbeing.
