Jeremy Clarkson Issues 'Catastrophic' Warning in Bleak Farm Update - Liverpool Echo

OXFORDSHIRE, ENGLAND, AUG 8 – Jeremy Clarkson's Diddly Squat farm faces strict bovine tuberculosis restrictions and a catastrophic 2025 harvest, with over 22,000 cattle culled nationally due to the disease, officials said.

  • Jeremy Clarkson warned on August 1 that the 2025 harvest at his Diddly Squat Farm in Oxfordshire will be catastrophic due to an outbreak of bovine tuberculosis.
  • The outbreak was confirmed last week after regular six-monthly TB testing revealed infected and inconclusive cases, leading to quarantine and lockdown measures on the farm.
  • Clarkson revealed on social media that one of his expecting cows tested positive for bovine TB, and the recently purchased prize bull Endgame, acquired for £5,500, received inconclusive test results, adding to the farm's difficulties.
  • Clarkson warned that this year's crop yield is expected to be disastrous and highlighted that the outcome is concerning for everyone who consumes food, not just farmers.
  • The outbreak forced a two-month farm closure and highlighted broader challenges British farmers face, as Clarkson urged attention to the disease's devastating impact amid government decisions on badger culling.
