Farming Today

A report on the future of global agriculture finds demand slowing over the next decade as developing countries reach saturation. The Suffolk Trinity: red poll cattle, Suffolk punch horses and Suffolk sheep. These three farm animals embodied agricultural progress in years gone by, but their value today is still evident.

Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
