Farming Today This Week: Commercial Fishing
From recruitment difficulties to quota negotiations, Sarah Swadling takes stock of the fishing industry as it sits on the brink of the biggest change in a generation - Brexit.
As the sun rises over Newlyn harbour in West Cornwall, Sarah Swadling talks to people at the bustling fish auction about the future of the industry. With Brexit around the corner fishermen, buyers and processors are all expecting big changes to come. The programme tackles the potential impact of Brexit on quotas and trade with the EU, recruitment difficulties in fishing and processing and how to tempt more British people to eat more British fish.
Presented by Sarah Swadling. Produced by Heather Simons.
