Brexit Fishing Rights, Sustainable Agriculture, Turkeys

Farming Today

Fishing groups react to the Brexit withdrawal agreement. Fishing For Leave is despondent, but the Scottish Fishermen's Federation believe that all is not lost. A large-scale assessment of sustainable agriculture across the world, by The Economist Intelligence Unit, has placed the UK as 55th out of 67 countries. The group says its figures show that the UK is failing to cut its green house gas emissions from farming, and is not controlling enough of its water use. It's time to be thinking about turkeys for Christmas, but of course farmers have been growing their Christmas birds since the summer. Rebecca Rooney has been to visit a turkey farmer in North Wiltshire. Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
