In this episode, a rural crime wave has seen machinery and high-tech equipment stolen from farms across the country.
We ask, what are the police doing about it?
With harvest not far off, we get latest advice for growers seeking to get the most from their wheat and barley crops.
Tighter enterprise margins mean profits are likely to be down this year. So how can farmers maintain or even increase their income?
We look at all the latest commodity prices – and we look at how changes in regulation threaten non-farm assured livestock.
And we meet the farmer who drove a combine harvester from John o'Groats to Land's End – raising thousands of pounds for charity.
