10/12/21 - The trees felled by Storm Arwen, NI farm payments and Kelvin Fletcher goes farming
Farming Today
A fifth of Scotlandβs annual timber harvest has been felled in one go by storm Arwen. The forestry industry body Confor says millions of trees have been blown down - with half as many also felled in England. Charlotte Smith asks what that means for the timber industry. The new agricultural strategy for Northern Ireland is expected to be released soon... so what are farmers there hoping for? And we meet the UK's newest farming family. Kelvin Fletcher is an actor and dancer: he won Strictly Come Dancing in 2019 and was in Emmerdale for 20 years. Now he and his wife Liz Marsland - who is also an actor - have bought a 120 acre farm in the Peak District! Presented by Charlotte Smith Produced in Bristol by Heather SimonsNext Episodes
