Milk Prices, Wild Flower Meadows, Horses
The price of milk is rising but it's not clear when or if the increase will be passed on to those whose produce the milk. Plus a look at the reseeding of wildflower meadows.
Milk prices are on the increase after reaching rock bottom, but will these rises be passed on to the farmer? Kevin Bellamy, a global dairy analyst, argues the industry has reasons to be cheerful in 2017. We visit a project to reseed wildflower meadows in Yorkshire, and as British equestrians prepare to repeat their 2012 success at the Olympic and Paralympic Games in Rio, we look at everything to do with the horse. Presented by David Gregory-Kumar and produced by Fiona Clampin.
