It's time to challenge landowners - the Black Farmer

Paul Moss

Available for over a year

At the Royal Agricultural College in Cirencester only fifteen students are black. But all of them are here as international students, and hope to take their skills back to their home countries. So why are so few black people in farming? Isn't it an attractive option for people to choose when it comes to deciding on their career path? Wilfred Emmanuel-Jones is one of the few black people you'll find in the UK's farming industry, and trades under the name 'The Black Farmer'. In this clip he tells BBC Gloucestershire's Paul Moss it's time landowners are challenged.
