McDonalds Fries Go British, EU Farm Aid Update, Herb Growing in Scotland

McDonalds announce they're going to use 100% British potatoes for their fast food fries, but do such pledges to source from UK producers really make any difference to farmers?

With much fanfare the EU launched an aid package for farmers earlier this month, with a total of £29 million promised for British farmers. Farming Minister George Eustice explains how dairy farmers will be helped, particularly those in Northern Ireland.

Try to imagine two and a half tonnes of herbs. It's a bit difficult when we're used to picking up just a bunch of them.. but that's the amount Scotherbs produces on a busy day. The business, which does pretty much what the name suggests is based on Tayside and relies on its arable farming neighbours to give herbs a slot in their annual crop rotations.
