05/12/20 Farming Today This Week: Brexit planning and the Government's roadmap for the future of farming in England

Today's programme is unsurprisingly Brexit-tastic. We hear from farmers making plans.

Today's programme is perhaps unsurprisingly Brexit-tastic. With less than a month to go before the end of the transition period, food producers and farmers are bracing themselves for massive change, from the way businesses trade to the way farming is financially supported.
We hear from the Environment Secretary who unveiled the new plan for England earlier this week and from some of the farmers planning for the next few years.
And how the Countryside Restoration Trust project in Dorset are renovating a Victorian barn to save a barn owl nest.

Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
