The new National Centre for the Uplands says a shortage of skilled young hill farmers must be averted, as landowners like the National Trust predict a large proportion of its tenants will retire in the next 10-15 years. Charlotte Smith visits Exmoor to discuss where that next generation of farmers will come from, with the National Farmers' Union Uplands Chair Robin Milton.
Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Sarah Swadling.
