As Britain's largest processor of bottled milk announces a two-and-a-half pence price rise, Charlotte Smith asks if the tide is turning for milk producers.

Following news of a downturn in sales of organic produce in the supermarkets, we speak to two businesses bucking the trend. Riverford, an organic meat and veg-box scheme based in Devon and Yeo Valley, Britain's largest organic dairy.
