Scrutiny of Fisheries Bill, big machinery, potato trial

Farming Today

As the Fisheries Bill makes its way through the House of Commons, an investigation by MPs says it's short on detail and recommends an independent advisory body is put in place. We hear reaction from the National Federation of Fishermen's Organisations. This week we're talking about the future of agricultural technology. Earlier this month the newest and shiniest bits of kit were all gathered together under one roof at farm machinery show, Lamma 2019. A three year farm trial run by the Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board has just ended, to find out how to grow better cooking potatoes with less impact on the environment. Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
