29/10/19: RSPB reviews its position on game shooting, 5g drones, heritage potatoes

Farming Today

The RSPB could start campaigning against game shoots, as it claims releasing millions of pheasant and partridge into the wild is having a detrimental impact on the environment. We hear from RSPB's Global Conservation Director, Martin Harper. One of the world's first trials of drones using a 5G network in a rural area is taking place in the north Pennines. Our reporter Sarah Falkingham went to see it. And we hear about the huge range of heritage potatoes grown in the UK in varying colours and shapes: black, red, purple, long and knobbly. Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
