14/02/26 Farming Today This Week: Flooding on farms, landscape recovery projects, AI in dairy
Farming TodayAvailable for 25 days
After what was the wettest January on record for some, more rain means more problems for farmers, from flooding and waterlogged fields to worries about the impact on this year's harvest and their bottom lines. This week we heard from farmers at different ends of the country. We hear from the Environment Agency boss on building resilience though natural flood management, in a landscape recovery project in Oxfordshire. And AI in dairy: Big Brother is watching moo. Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
