Great Yorkshire Show: Defra's outlines new fine system for water polluters, we ask what it means for farmers. Overseas markets for red meat. Tech innovation and methane tractor.
A special programme for the Great Yorkshire Show. Over four days, 200 acres of show ground in Harrogate will welcome around 140,000 visitors. We speak to the Defra Secretary who's unveiled tougher new plans for water polluters - what will that mean for farmers? We meet a delegation of overseas buyers interested in exports of red meat. In the new tech innovation zone, we look at a machine that enriches manure by replicating lightning and Caz sits in a methane-powered tractor.
