In the UK, Rachel Reeves' first budget has led to significant unhappiness within the farming community, with thousands of farmers (and supporters like Jeremy Clarkson) marching on Downing Street. Is this just a matter of tax fairness or is Reeves jeopardising food security in an already precarious industry? Tom Hamilton gives the view from London and, with Emily Tamkin away for Thanksgiving, Rohan Venkat probes the situation and discusses how India has a long history of farmers proving an influential political caucus.
