Charlotte Smith asks Professor Christl Donnelly what her new report tells us about the success of the badger cull in reducing the spread of bovine TB in cattle. Charlotte also gets the reaction of Lord Krebs who supervised the initial randomised badger culling trials on which the culling policy is based. This week Farming Today is looking at rural services and today the focus is on connectivity. In a bid to improve their mobile signal a village in Wiltshire have installed small mobile cells at a fraction of the cost of a big mast. Rebecca Rooney went to meet the people behind the scheme.
