A new United Nations report explores the impact of Covid and the war in Ukraine on food security worldwide, and how that situation could evolve over the next decade.

We hear how a new piece of research reveals that young people still don’t regard agriculture as an appealing career option.

And with the cost of farming rising, rural tourism has become an important source of extra income for many farm businesses. Today we report from a farm where fields are being used as a campsite.
