High-tech peas: how they are kept fresh for your dinner?

Radio 4 in Four

Available for over a year

The pea harvest is underway. It's a race against time to pick and freeze the peas to keep them as fresh as possible for the dinner table. What we don't realise is how much technology and refining is involved in the process of getting your peas from plant to table. Sybil Ruscoe finds out what happens to peas before they reach your plate. First broadcast on Farming Today, 24 August 2016.
