Farming Today

A fall in the pig price as the backlog of animals stuck on farms continues to grow. We hear from the Shadow Defra Secretary Luke Pollard and Tim Farron the Liberal Democrat’s Spokesman on Agriculture. A poll commissioned by the assurance scheme Red Tractor finds British consumers trust British food. All week we’ve been talking about wine production in the UK. One small wine producer based in Bristol has been growing on rented land for more than a decade but now wants to buy more, and has decided to raise the Β£50,000 she needs by crowdfunding. Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
