British cheese to America and Anglesey sea salt to the White House. Charlotte Smith hears how the UK's food export market is expanding. It was worth £5.8 billion in the first half of 2011, up 13% on the same period last year. The Food and Drink Federation tells Farming Today it's the 7th consecutive year of growth, and cheese exporters Somerdale International explain why British cheese is in demand worldwide.
After a series of floods and drought, the WWF is warning the UK now faces a water crisis. Farming Today asks the Environment Agency how the UK can use less water.
