Talking Crop UK
Talking Crop is the new Goodyear Farm Tires podcast which celebrates farming families.
Our presenter Will Evans - himself a 10th generation family farmer from Wrexham - and our Goodyear Farm Tires team are travelling the length and breadth of the country to hear the unique stories of farming families who form the bedrock of the UK agricultural industry.
Brought back to the UK and European markets by Titan Europe in 2019, Goodyear Farm Tires provides farmers with a range of agricultural tyres that deliver class-leading performance, durability and value and help farmers improve productivity and crop yield.

Organised Chaos
We head to Cumbria for episode four of Goodyear Farm Tires’ Talking Crop podcast to meet the British Farming Family of the Year of 2024.
The Ladds Family, headed up by Andrew and Cath and supported by sons Chris, Richard and Thomas, claimed the coveted award after a hugely successful 12 months at Benson Hall Farm in Scalthwaiterigg
Operating a mixed farm including more than 200 Holstein cows, R & E Ladds also has a farm contracting service covering forage harvesting, round baling, slurry work and GPS-controlled fertiliser spreading, as well as a 45-site static caravan park established post-foot-and-mouth disease.
Additionally, they partner with Kendal College, hosting practical classes and providing valuable hands-on experience for students.
The Talking Crop podcast is produced by Goodyear Farm Tires.
