Farming star Kaleb Cooper has opened up about the challenges faced by farmers post Brexit and he explained how he can only pay himself 50p per hour. The 24-year-old farming contractor from Chipping Norton is best known from Clarkson's Farm, and recognised for his passion for farming, as well as his patient and hilarious approach to working with Jeremy Clarkson on Diddly Squat farm.
However, since being put in the spotlight Kaleb has decided to step out of Jeremy's shadow and start his own venture by purchasing eight calves. The father-of-two explained that it is his dream to be able to run his own farm in Oxford, but also shared how tough it is to be a farmer in Britain at the moment, reports the Daily Mirror.
Whilst on the Performance People podcast hosted by Ben and Georgie Ainslie, Kaleb said: "When I'm working for myself, when I'm feeding my calves, I bought eight calves, it's a little bit of a new business idea that I'm doing. And then you feed them on milk which costs me about £200 a calf and then selling them at nine months, trying to get a profit, trying to see if it will work you know.
