Dairy Crisis, Community Defibrillators, Scottish Tea

Anna Hill hears from the NFU president about the continuing dairy crisis. Also, the charity helping rural communities buy and fit defibrillators, and Scottish tea growers.

The NFU says it's vital consumers support British dairy farmers, as global milk prices continue to fall. NFU president Meurig Raymond tells Anna Hill the union is working with retailers and processors to make sure farmers get a fair price.
We talk to a charity helping rural communities to buy and fit defibrillators, which could save vital seconds in the case of cardiac arrest in remote areas.
And the Scottish tea growers off to an international conference in Quatar tell us they need more farmers to take up tea growing.
