Barnstorming UK is an initiative which sees prominent politicians interviewed in front of a live audience by a journalist with an interest in similar issues.I interviewed Neil Parish MP, chairman of the House of Commons environment, food and rural affairs committee, which scrutinises the government's policies for agriculture.We covered a range of issues – including Neil's work, his views on Defra secretary of state Michael Gove, food standards, animal welfare, environmental payments to farmers, international trade in agricultural products and – of course – Brexit.This episode of Inside Farming was recorded live on Thursday, 7 March 2019 in the Old Tithe Barn at Bix Manor, Henley on Thames.With thanks to Neil Parish, Barnstorming UK and Bix Manor.
