20/08/19 Grain trading, rural report, mob grazing, invasive pygmyweed
Farming Today
A new report criticises Westminster for ignoring the concerns of rural communities and farming businesses. UK grain traders raise concerns about how this year's harvest will leave our shores if a 'No Deal' Brexit comes to pass. As part of our Back to the Future week, we meet a farmer who says mimicking ancient natural grazing patterns is not only good for the environment, but is also a healthier and more efficient way of feeding cattle. The National Trust is concerned that the increased popularity of lake swimming could see invasive New Zealand pygmyweed spread to nearby lakes on contaminated wetsuits. Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Beatrice Fenton.Next Episodes
