What does this abbreviation mean, which a farmer (Brian) says to the other (Daivd) farmer? The word is voiced at 3’40” in its BBC's audio of 2014-10-24 Friday.

Your quote is from a summary of an episode of the BBC radio series The Archers. A Google search for "BL Archers" reveals that BL is an acronym for Borchester Land, a fictional land development company appearing throughout the series.
