Young farmer Katie from County Durham has just banked her A-levels and, alongside her studies, is devoted to rearing her herd of Jersey cows. As she heads to North Yorkshire’s Wensleydale Agricultural Show with her parents, Katie rides the challenges of the morning rush to give her cows the best chance of making the grade in the judging ring. \n\nMeanwhile, sibling duo Beth and Luke plan to take up the reins of the family farm in the future, and winning awards for their pedigree Limousin cattle is their passport to success.
