Every summer weekend in Scotland you can find at least one agricultural show. They're certainly not the glitzy events like the Royal Highland or the big commercial industry exhibitions. These are small-scale community shows run by farmers, and livestock are the main focus.

Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
