It's peak season for illegal hare coursing, with Lincolnshire Police investigating reports of more than 27 incidents in the county in just one weekend.

The illegal practice, where dogs are set off in fields to chase hares, is often bet on, and Lincolnshire is one of the areas most frequently targeted by coursers due to its flat, rural nature. But Lincolnshire's specialist Rural Crime Unit says updated legislation is helping police reduce the amount of hare coursing in the county.

As part of our week looking at the future of farm machinery, we visit the University of Falmouth where a daffodil picking robot is being developed.

And we hear from Dave Goulson, Professor of Biology at University of Sussex, and founder of the Bumblebee Conservation Trust, a leading voice in the debate around how agriculture affects insect numbers.
