A new group has been launched, bringing a code of conduct for shoots and an assurance mark for game meat. But anti-shooting groups say these are 'desperate measures' from an unacceptable sport. The Environment Secretary Michael Gove has published a Clean Air Strategy which aims to cut air pollution, and has targeted ammonia emissions on farms. One of the scientists who helped to develop neonicotinoid pesticides, which are being banned cross the EU, has told Farming Today he doesn't regret his work. Scottish scientists have come up with a potential solution to tackle the problem of tail biting in pigs. Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
