18/09/21 Farming Today This Week: Labour shortages, potatoes, lack of interest in the new environmental funding scheme

Farming Today

We hear what labour shortages mean for farmers, from dumping milk to the pigs stuck on farm. MPs launch an inquiry into how labour and trade issues are affecting the food supply chain.

Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
