Food, farming and countryside news with Anna Hill. Russia is on the verge of letting British beef past its borders, 16 years after it was banned because of BSE.
Russia is on the verge of letting British beef past its borders, sixteen years after it was banned because of concerns about BSE. Anna Hill speaks to Secretary of State Owen Paterson about his forthcoming trade delegation to Moscow, and what he hopes it will achieve for British farmers.
Two years after a major government report into reducing waste in food production, are farmers playing their part in bringing down the amount of food which never reaches the shelves?
And we meet the Lincolnshire farmer who's broken the UK record for wheat yield, despite this year's weather.
Presented by Anna Hill. Produced by Emma Campbell.
