In this episode, MPs say government plans to replace direct payments for farmers in England are based on 'blind optimism' and lack clarity.
We examine the report – and its implications for farmers and growers.
There's a glimmer of hope when it comes to restrictions on slurry and manure spreading.
Celebrity farmer Jeremy Clarkson has planning permission refused for a new farm cafe. What can we learn from his trials and tribulations?
We look at how you can take part in a new experiment to combat flea beetle in oilseed rape.
We speak to the mail order company promoting rare breeds and seasonality – how do they do it so successfully?
And we meet the farmer who has drawn a picture of the weather – every day for the past six years.
