Farming Today

On today's programme, Sybil Ruscoe asks whether we're heading for constitutional problems over agricultural trade within the UK after Brexit. She talks to a professor of politics from Aberdeen University. Continuing a week-long look at the poultry sector, we visit a large-scale broiler unit in South Gloucestershire, and find out how the relationship between animal welfare standards and retail pricing works. Could unwanted fleece from shearing sheep find a new use for gardeners? We find out. Presenter by Sybil Ruscoe and produced by Emma Campbell for BBC Audio in Bristol.
