The government unveils its new approach to controlling TB in cattle which includes ending badger culls in the future.
Thousands of farmers who were promised financial help after the devastating floods of last winter have still not been paid.
This year’s harvest has been anything but straightforward, not just wet weather but high fertiliser costs and infection from fungus have all caused difficulties. Which means many arable farmers are facing poorer yields than normal and so less financial reward.
The number of cattle being raised for beef across the UK is falling, so could it mean a good future for artificial protein sources?
And it looks like a blueberry but isn't, it's a saskatoon, a new fruit grown in Scotland.
