Lambing season is just a month away for most of the farmers.
In central Scotland near Loch Lomond, Anne is left in charge of the farm on her own and begins by feeding breakfast to over 2,000 animals.
East of Inverness, Martin tends to their 500 pregnant ewes - and gets the lambing sheds ready with dad Stevie. Further west in Argyll, George takes a group of Belgian hunters out on a deer-stalking trip, and later he and wife Sybil co-host a judging competition where knowledge of blackface sheep is put to the test.
In the far north, John heads to the vet with a pedigree ewe that's pregnant with triplets, and the vet decides to perform a caesarean. Bobby returns and selects the sheep to go for slaughter. Martin takes two of his top bulls to market - they failed to sell before and this is their last chance. Martin's farm depends on them making a good sale, but will they attract the buyers?

In Argyll, Sybil prepares for George's 50th birthday and the arrival of her sister and niece from England. Sybil and George are also looking after a desperately ill cow. Julia K had a traumatic caesarean and is too weak to stand up on her own, so they decide to lift her to her feet twice a day using a sling and a forklift truck to help build her muscles up.
East of Inverness, persistent rain means Martin's cattle and young calves are yet to be turned out of their winter sheds into the fields. Sybil's sister and niece arrive and there's tension over the question of who will take on the family farm in the future.
In central Scotland near Loch Lomond, Bobby and Anne hold an open day to educate the public about farming. North of Aberdeen, John has to urgently call the vet when one of his heifers gets into difficulty calving. The vet decides on a caesarean but it's a major operation and there's no guarantee she, or her huge calf, will survive.
