The Government has cut the recommended daily intake of dairy in our diet by a half - from 15% to 8%. It's part of their aim to reduce the amount of sugar and fat we eat. But the dairy industry says it's disappointed by the guidance, and that dairy products are an important part of a healthy diet.
And a South Wales farmer brings together all the experts and companies she works with - to illustrate just how much value a successful farm business adds to the local economy.
Presented by Sybil Ruscoe and produced by Sally Challoner.
