Episode 5 (2x5)
:
Bovine TB hits the young farmers' herds, and first to feel the full force of the disease is 23-year-old Charlie. The virus is wrecking his investment in cattle and with all his animals quarantined, his livelihood is under threat. Elsewhere, Robbie turns to selling piglets to keep the cash flowing, but will it be enough? Charlie's friend, 22-year-old dairy farmer Ollie, has branched out into agricultural construction to make ends meet. While helping his dad with daily tasks, he cleans out the cowshed and plays host to the annual National Federation of Young Farmers party.
