Global dairy, rare breed, unaffordable rural housing
Farming and countryside news with Anna Hill. Could drought in New Zealand turn out to be good news for UK dairy farmers? Plus a new report on the rural housing affordability gap.
A glimmer of hope, possibly, for UK dairy farmers as global commodity markets start to improve. But, as AHDB analyst Patty Clayton tells Anna Hill, there are several hurdles ahead before farmers can expect their prices to increase.
A new review of rural housing takes stock of progress in closing the affordability gap.
We begin a week examining whether Britain's rarest livestock breeds can have a place in modern farming.
Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Sarah Swadling.
