A third of farmed land in England and Wales is rented, and there are warnings that tenant farmers are facing more challenges than those who own the land they work. A government survey carried out in April this year and published last week found that when asked if they were very confident that changes to the post-Brexit payment schemes in England will lead to a successful future for farming, none of 130 tenant farmers questioned said that they were. Meanwhile the Tenant Farmers Association says it's seeing less land being made available for rent, putting additional pressure on the sector.

Blue-green algae in Lough Neagh in Northern Ireland is now at the same level as last summer. Pollution from agriculture and sewage, along with the weather, has been blamed for much of the problem, which is making the water toxic. Last year some dogs died after swimming in Lough Neagh. Now scientists expect the blooms to start moving beyond the lough up to the North Coast.   

All week we're looking at forestry. The UK target is to plant 30,000 hectares a year - last year 20,000 hectares were planted. The new government says it will introduce a Tree Planting Taskforce, and create three national forests. It also wants to increase the amount of timber grown in the UK. We speak to the Confederation of Forest Industries.
