The Country: Jason Uden and Jeremy Rookes. Today’s panel debates the very contentious issue of the Farmwatch video.

If anyone is going to give you an honest opinion about the Farmwatch bobby calf footage it's the Two Farmer Js.

Jason Uden doesn't mince words when it comes to animal cruelty. He says farmers can't afford to have this happening anymore. Animal abusers need to be outed and banned from working with livestock ever again.

Jeremy Rookes reckons we need to keep people onside closer to home rather than worrying about the world stage. He understands that life on the farm can get a bit heated but in this day and age of constant surveliance farmers can't afford to lose their cool.
